Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the photo, you can see the sign D-40 "residential area". The speed limit for a tram on a road marked with this sign is not 25 km/h - the answer is NO.
The sign D-40 marks the entrance to a residential area. The Road Traffic Act limits the speed of every vehicle in it to 20 km/h, so this also applies to a tram. The value of 25 km/h does not appear in the rules on residential areas. In such an area, pedestrians may use the full width of the road and have right of way over vehicles. So you drive slowly and are ready to stop immediately. The area ends at the sign D-41. Watch out especially for children.
Legal basis: § 58 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 11 para. 5 and Art. 20 para. 2 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
