Information and Special Regulation Signs

The essentials

Information and special regulation signs provide information about traffic regimes, directions, road facilities or special lanes. This topic helps understand not only the symbol on the sign, but also how it changes the driving rules on that section.

What to remember

Information and special regulation signs organize the traffic regime: one-way road, permitted directions, motorway, built-up area, stop, pedestrian crossing and other special zones. Many of these signs do not require a single action; instead, they change the rules for an entire section until the corresponding end sign or condition.

Is it allowed to enter the specified yard?
  1. Only after the populated area start signs with white background
  2. Only after signs with white or blue background containing the name of the populated area
  3. Only after the beginning of the built-up area

The correct answer: Only after the populated area start signs with white background
