Bord e1 is parkeerverbod laden lossen mag

This definition is the foundation on which sign E1 (parking ban) and sign E2 (standing-still ban) get their meaning: where E1 stands, you may still stand still (loading/unloading, getting in/out); where E2 stands, even that is no longer allowed.

How the exam asks it

About Sign E1 and E2: parking ban or standing-still ban: which statement is WRONG?

  1. The book states explicitly: 'You may still stand still to load/unload or to let a passenger get in/out.'.
  2. It is exactly the reverse. Sign E1 (one diagonal stripe) = parking ban: standing still for loading/unloading or getting in/out is still allowed. Sign E2 (two crossed stripes, a cross) = standing-still ban: that forbids EVERYTHING, including loading/unloading.
  3. A sign E1 or E2 alongside the road applies to both directions of travel / both sides of the road.
  4. With E2 'you may not stand still afterwards (and therefore not park either)' — with no exception for loading/unloading.
Show the answer

Correct answer: A sign E1 or E2 alongside the road applies to both directions of travel / both sides of the road.

'these signs only apply to the side of the road where they stand'. The opposite side can have a completely different situation

Why learners get this wrong: With sign E1, you may also no longer stand still to load/unload or let a passenger in/out.

On a rainy Tuesday evening, while loading furniture for a move in Bergen op Zoom, the removal van is parked next to a sign with TWO red stripes crossing each other. May the driver stand still here to load?

  1. No — two crossed stripes is sign E2, a standing-still ban, which also forbids loading/unloading
  2. Yes — that sign only forbids parking, loading/unloading is always allowed
Show the answer

Correct answer: No — two crossed stripes is sign E2, a standing-still ban, which also forbids loading/unloading

Two crossed stripes (a cross) is sign E2, not E1 — E2 forbids ALL standing still, including loading/unloading.

Why learners get this wrong: Sign E1 forbids all standing still (including loading/unloading), and sign E2 only forbids parking but still allows standing still.

Open this question

In a street in Dronten there is a round blue sign on your side with a red border and two red bars that cross. You want to drop off a parcel there. What applies here?

  1. You may not park here, but you may stop briefly to unload
  2. You may not stop here, not even briefly to unload
  3. You may stop briefly here to unload, as long as it is quick
Show the answer

Correct answer: You may not stop here, not even briefly to unload

False — you mix up the two signs. One diagonal bar is no parking (brief loading and unloading allowed); the cross means no stopping, so unloading is not allowed either

Why learners get this wrong: Sign E1 forbids all standing still (including loading/unloading), and sign E2 only forbids parking but still allows standing still.
