Lesson 14 of 18 · Restrictions

Who is restricted, and what ends?

Separate bicycles, mopeds and pedestrians, then read overtaking and ending signs precisely.

Learn the signs

C25.1

C25.1 Cykel og lille knallert forbudt

No cycles or small mopeds

What it means
Do not ride a bicycle or small moped into the section. A plate can also prohibit leading them.
Your action
Do not ride a bicycle or small moped into the section. A plate can also prohibit leading them.
Common mistake
The bicycle picture covers small mopeds too; it is not identical to C25.2, which only bans small mopeds.

Do not enter riding a small moped. Check plates, including any extension to leading the moped.
Your action
Do not enter riding a small moped. Check plates, including any extension to leading the moped.

No riding or leading horses

What it means
Do not enter either riding a horse or leading one on foot.
Your action
Do not enter either riding a horse or leading one on foot.

C26.2

C26.2 Fodgængere forbudt

No pedestrians

What it means
Do not enter on foot; choose a permitted pedestrian route.
Your action
Do not enter on foot; choose a permitted pedestrian route.
Common mistake
This prohibits pedestrians rather than reserving a walking path, as the blue D22 does.

C52

C52 Overhaling med lastbil forbudt

No overtaking by trucks

What it means
Trucks and truck combinations must not overtake on this section, subject to the stated exceptions for two-wheeled cycles, two-wheeled small mopeds and vehicles turning off the road.
Your action
Trucks and truck combinations must not overtake on this section, subject to the stated exceptions for two-wheeled cycles, two-wheeled small mopeds and vehicles turning off the road.
Common mistake
The restriction does not automatically end at a junction; look for its ending sign or the distance stated on a plate.

C54

C54 Ophør af overhaling med lastbil forbudt

End of the truck overtaking prohibition

What it means
The signed truck overtaking restriction ends. Before overtaking, check all other signs, markings, visibility and general rules.
Your action
The signed truck overtaking restriction ends. Before overtaking, check all other signs, markings, visibility and general rules.
Common mistake
An ending sign removes that particular restriction; it does not make every overtaking manoeuvre safe or legal.

C59

C59 Ophør af forbud

End of signed prohibitions

What it means
This ends prohibitory signs on the preceding road section except stopping and parking prohibitions. General traffic rules still apply.
Your action
This ends prohibitory signs on the preceding road section except stopping and parking prohibitions. General traffic rules still apply.
Common mistake
Do not use C59 as permission to park where stopping or parking remains prohibited, or as an unlimited-speed sign.

C92

C92 Passage uden stop forbudt

Stop before passing: read the reason

What it means
Stop before continuing and read the text or symbol below the bar explaining the check or other reason.
Your action
Stop before continuing and read the text or symbol below the bar explaining the check or other reason.
Common mistake
Unlike B13 at a junction or railway track, this sign identifies a required stop for the reason printed on it.

Recall: name each sign

Similar signs, different decisions

Look at the exact symbol first, then read the difference.

C25.1 prohibits riding both cycles and small mopeds. C25.2 prohibits small mopeds only; it does not by itself prohibit cycling.

C59 ends earlier signed prohibitions except stopping and parking prohibitions. A continuing C61 or C62 restriction is not cancelled by C59.

What would you do?

Answer without looking back. Your first check is kept as your result. This is practice, not an official exam.
