Does this sign, if not previously revoked by a sign indicating the end of a speed limit zone, apply to the nearest intersection?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the photo you can see a residential street with detached houses, with sign B-43 "speed limit zone" with the number 30. This sign, if it is not cancelled by an end-of-zone sign, applies beyond the nearest junction, not only up to it - the answer is NO.
Sign B-43 marks the entrance to a zone in which you must not exceed the speed shown on the sign. The limit applies on all roads in the zone, also beyond junctions, up to sign B-44 "end of speed limit zone". The rule that a prohibition applies up to the nearest junction concerns other signs, for example B-33 "speed limit", but not a zone. Sign B-43 with a limit of up to 30 km/h also informs you that speed bumps and other traffic-calming devices might not be marked with warning signs.
Legal basis: § 31 para. 1 and 2 and § 32 para. 2 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
