Are you warned in this situation of a place on the road frequently attended by children or of proximity of such a place?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
On both sides of the street there are yellow triangles with outlines of running children - sign A-17 "children". It warns of a place on the road frequently used by children or of the nearness of such a place, for example a school or a playground. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals defines A-17 exactly as the question is worded. A child is shorter than parked cars, is worse at judging a car's speed and can run onto the roadway after a ball without looking. After sign A-17 you slow down, watch the pavements and the spaces between vehicles, and when driving behind a bus, as in the photo, you expect that children will get off it at the stop and run out from behind it.
Legal basis: § 8 para. 2 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
