Does this horizontal sign prohibit changing lanes?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
On the viaduct the traffic lanes in your direction are separated by a single solid line. This is marking P-2, which means that you must not cross this line or drive on it. Since you must not cross it, you must not change lanes on this section either.
The Regulation on road signs and signals says that marking P-2 "single solid line" separates traffic lanes for the same direction and means that you must not cross this line or drive on it. Such a line is painted where changing lanes would be dangerous - on bridges, viaducts and before junctions. You can change the lane you are in only where the line becomes broken again.
Legal basis: § 86 para. 3 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
