Does this sign warn of possible road frosting or doves on the road?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video, you are driving along a road through a pine forest with barriers on both sides; on the right there is a yellow triangle with a snowflake symbol - sign A-32 "frost on the roadway". This sign warns of frost on the roadway or black ice that may occur on the road. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign A-32 "frost on the roadway" warns of frost on the roadway or black ice that may occur on the road. The snowflake symbol does not mean snowfall - it means that the surface in this place freezes earlier and more often than elsewhere: in the shade of a forest, on bridges and flyovers, near rivers and in valleys, where cold, damp air collects. Here the sign stands in a forest, where the surface stays frozen longer in the shade of the trees. Black ice is treacherous, because the roadway looks wet or dry, while grip falls several times over. Warning signs require you to exercise particular caution - when the temperature is close to zero, you take your foot off the accelerator, do not brake or turn sharply, increase your following distance from the vehicle in front, and if the car starts to "float", you do not jerk the steering wheel.
