Study Notes

Road markings and signs

  • Broken lines: Separate traffic directions; overtaking is possible if safe
  • Double white lines: Follow the closed line; continuous lines prohibit overtaking; broken lines allow it. Same meaning with parking and refuge.
  • Solid lines: Separate traffic directions; overtaking is prohibited
  • "STOP" sign and road markings: Stop before the transverse line; keep left.
  • "GIVE WAY" sign and road markings: Give way to traffic on the major road; keep left, give way.
  • Zebra crossings: Pedestrians should never cross the road within the zig-zag area. Drivers stop at broken "give way" signs (about 1 meter before the crossing).

Zebra Crossing Rules

  • Pedestrians should never cross the road within the zig-zag area.
  • Drivers should stop at the broken "give way" marking (approximately 1 meter before).
  • Pedestrians use the crossing; if there are queues, drivers should not queue over crossings.
  • Be very careful when driving off; look out for pedestrians.
  • Traffic lanes: if there are two lanes (and one has a queue) only drivers in the free-flowing lane should proceed.
  • Pedestrians on the crossing might be obscured by parked cars; drivers should be cautious in such circumstances.
  • Drivers must not overtake a stopped vehicle at a "give way" line to allow pedestrians to cross.
  • Stop 1 meter before a zebra crossing.
