Are you warned in this situation of a road covered with gravel which may be discarded from under the wheels of moving vehicles?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
On the right there is a triangular warning sign with a car and small stones flying out from under its wheels. This is sign A-28 "loose gravel". It warns of a section of road covered with gravel or grit that the wheels of moving vehicles can throw up - for example on a freshly surface-dressed road or at the exit from a gravel pit.
Warning signs tell you in advance about dangerous places and require you to exercise particular caution. On such a section you reduce your speed and increase your following distance from the vehicle in front, because stones thrown from under its wheels can damage your windscreen, and loose gravel makes your braking distance longer. In addition, sign B-25 "no overtaking", visible further along the road, applies here.
