K53 Questions on Regulatory Signs
Straight from the question bank, with the answer and the reason it is correct.
What does a round sign with a red border and a "P" crossed out indicate?▼
A round sign with "P" crossed out means NO PARKING. You may not park your vehicle at this location.
A NO PARKING sign has a selective restriction plate showing "08:00–17:00 Mon–Fri". What does this mean?▼
SELECTIVE RESTRICTION SIGNS modify when a regulatory sign applies. A NO PARKING sign with "08:00–17:00 Mon–Fri" means no parking is allowed ONLY DURING THOSE HOURS ON WEEKDAYS. Outside those times (evenings, weekends), parking is permitted — unless another sign indicates otherwise.
What does this sign mean — an octagonal red sign with the word "STOP"?▼
The STOP sign (octagonal, red) requires a complete stop at the stop line. You must stop regardless of whether traffic is present, check for safety, then proceed.
A triangular sign with a red border and a white background pointing upwards — what does it mean?▼
The YIELD (Give Way) sign is an inverted triangle with a red border. You must give way to all traffic on the road you are entering.
