C1Difficulty 1/5

As a general rule, without a panel indicating another starting distance, where do the obligations, restrictions or prohibitions of a regulatory sign begin?

Correct answer

From the cross-section where the sign is placed.

From the cross-section where the sign is placed. A supplementary panel may indicate a distance to the start of the requirement. There is no general fixed distance of 50 or 100 metres for every such sign; each sign’s specific provisions must be respected.
