Lesson 6 of 18 · Hazards

Warnings and road users

Read each explanation and identify what needs your attention.

Learn the signs

A11 Farligt vejkryds

Your action: Watch the side roads and be ready to react to a driver who fails to give way.
Common mistake: A warning about a junction does not mean you can ignore poor visibility.

A16 Rundkørsel

What it means: A roundabout is ahead. Prepare your approach and read the priority signs and markings at its entrance.
Your action: Prepare for the roundabout and read the priority signs and markings at its entrance.
Common mistake: The triangular warning sign alone does not set all priority rules at the entrance.

A17 Fodgængerfelt

Your action: Watch both sides for people approaching the crossing and adjust your speed so you can stop when required.
Common mistake: This warns of a crossing ahead; do not assume the crossing is exactly beside this sign.

A19 Lyssignal

Your action: Look ahead for the signals and prepare to respond to their actual aspect.
Common mistake: The warning sign is not itself a red light or a stop line.

A21 Cyklister

Your action: Look for cyclists crossing or joining your route and prepare to react.
Common mistake: A warning is not a complete priority rule; check the actual junction and markings.

A22 Børn

Your action: Choose a speed that allows you to react to a child moving unexpectedly near or onto the road.
Common mistake: The sign does not set a fixed speed such as 20 or 30 km/h by itself.

A26 Dyrevildt

Your action: Look for animals near the road and leave enough time and distance to react safely.
Common mistake: The warning is relevant beyond only dawn or dusk.

A36 Bump

Your action: Reduce to a suitable speed before reaching the hump. Read any accompanying speed information.
Common mistake: The picture does not give one universal safe speed for every hump and vehicle.

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

A11 warns about a junction where side-road traffic must give way. B11 tells you to give way to the road you are entering or crossing.

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