Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo you can see the entrance to a street in a small town, with sign B-2 "no entry". The sign shown applies to a moped rider - the answer is YES.
Sign B-2 means that vehicles must not enter the road or roadway from the side where the sign is placed; the prohibition also applies to columns of pedestrians and to horse riders and people driving animals. It covers all vehicles, so also a moped, a light quadricycle and a bicycle, unless there is a plate with an exception under the sign, for example "Nie dotyczy rowerów" (does not apply to bicycles). Sign B-2 most often stands at the exit end of a one-way road - entering would mean riding against the flow of traffic. If you want to get there, you look for a detour, or you get off the moped and push it along the pavement as a pedestrian.
Legal basis: § 17 para. 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 2 point 18 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
