Traffic signs

Traffic rules

An additional sign is a traffic sign placed directly below another sign to provide extra information or clarify how the main sign should be understood. It can specify conditions such as distance, time periods, road users affected, directions, or special circumstances. Additional signs do not create new rules by themselves but modify, limit, or explain the meaning of the sign above them so drivers can apply the rule correctly in that specific situation.

1. For disabled people

The supplementary sign for disabled people is a panel placed below a main traffic sign to indicate that the sign's regulation applies specifically to persons with disabilities. It clarifies that the main sign is intended only for disabled people, often those with an official disability permit.

2. For cyclists

The supplementary sign for cyclists is a panel placed below a main traffic sign to indicate that the rule, warning, or instruction applies specifically to cyclists. It limits the scope of the main sign only to bicycle users, ensuring that other road users are not affected unless separately indicated. Example: No entry + for cyclists = cyclists are not allowed to enter, but other traffic may proceed.

3. For rickshaws

The supplementary sign for rickshaws is a traffic panel placed below a main sign to indicate that the instruction, restriction, or warning applies specifically to rickshaws. The supplementary sign ensures that the main sign applies only to rickshaws, whether to permit, prohibit, or warn them of specific conditions. A rickshaw is a small, often three-wheeled vehicle used to carry passengers or goods.

4. For motorcycles

The supplementary sign for motorcycles is a traffic panel placed below a main sign to indicate that the rule, prohibition, or warning applies specifically to motorcycles. This sign targets motorcyclists, helping to regulate their behavior, warn of specific hazards, or grant/restrict access in certain areas. A motorcycle is a two-wheeled motor vehicle (with or without a sidecar), legally distinct from: mopeds, speed pedelecs, cars or trucks.

5. For cars

The supplementary sign for cars is a panel placed below a main traffic sign to indicate that the instruction, prohibition, or warning applies specifically to passenger cars. A car in this context usually refers to: Standard passenger vehicles (sedans, hatchbacks, SUVs). Not including: motorcycles, trucks, buses, mopeds, or bicycles.

6. For taxis

The supplementary sign for taxis is a traffic panel placed below a main traffic sign to indicate that the rule, permission, restriction, or facility applies specifically to taxis. A taxi is a licensed passenger transport vehicle that picks up passengers on demand.

7. For trucks

The supplementary sign for trucks is a traffic panel placed below a main traffic sign to indicate that the instruction, restriction, or permission applies specifically to trucks. It includes light trucks, heavy goods vehicles (HGVs), articulated lorries, and delivery trucks.

8. For buses

The supplementary sign for buses is a traffic panel placed below a main sign to indicate that the rule, restriction, or permission applies specifically to buses. A bus is a motor vehicle designed for carrying multiple passengers, typically 9 or more seats including the driver.

9. Buses allowed

The supplementary sign buses allowed indicates that buses are permitted to access, enter, or use a road, lane, or area despite a restriction shown on the main traffic sign. Buses (vehicles designed for carrying multiple passengers) are excepted from the main restriction. Applies to public transit buses, school buses, and private coaches, depending on local rules. Does not include minibuses or vans unless specified. May include text: “Buses allowed”, “Except buses”, “Only for buses”.

10. Entry prohibited

A supplementary sign entry prohibited is used below a main traffic sign to clarify that entry is forbidden for the specified category or in a specific context. May display text: “Entry prohibited”, “No entry”.
