Does this sign inform you of approaching an exit from the motorway?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo you are driving on a motorway behind a lorry, and on the right there is a blue board with the inscription "100 m" and one diagonal white stripe - sign F-14c. This sign tells you that you are approaching an exit from the motorway. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that countdown boards F-14a, F-14b and F-14c, placed 300, 200 and 100 m respectively before the deceleration lane, inform you that you are approaching the beginning of the lane leading to the exit from the motorway. The number of diagonal stripes matches the distance: three stripes mean 300 m, two - 200 m, one - 100 m. At high speed you cover 100 m in three seconds, so if you want to exit, you move into the right lane already at the first board, and at this last one you switch on your right indicator and move onto the deceleration lane, braking only once you are on it.
