Is the prohibition expressed on this sign obligatory from the place of its mounting?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the photo, in front of toll gates, there is sign B-32 with the inscription "Pobór Opłat" (toll collection), and under it a plate "100 m". Plate T-21 means that the duty to stop begins only 100 m further on, at the gates, and not at the place where the sign stands. The answer is: no.
The Regulation on road signs and signals sets the general rule that a prohibition shown by a prohibitory sign applies from the place where the sign stands, but it provides an exception: plate T-21 placed under the sign shows the distance from the sign to the place from which or at which the prohibition applies. Sign B-32 with the inscription "Pobór opłat" (toll collection) requires you to stop at the designated place, that is at the gate. At the sign you only slow down and choose a lane.
Legal basis: § 15 para. 2 and para. 5 point 2 and § 26 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
