Does the board placed under this warning sign indicate the sign's distance from a dangerous spot?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
Under sign A-11a "speed bump" in the photo there is plate T-1 showing "25 m". Plate T-1 under a warning sign gives the distance from the sign to the dangerous place - so the speed bump is 25 m further on. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals says that plate T-1 placed under a warning sign shows the distance from the sign to the dangerous place. It is used when the sign cannot stand at the standard distance (150-300 m on roads with a speed limit above 60 km/h, up to 100 m on other roads), for example in short streets in housing estates. Do not confuse it with T-2, which has arrows and gives the length of the section on which the danger repeats.
Legal basis: § 3 para. 2 and 4 and § 7 para. 2 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
