How the exam asks it

Near Harderwijk stands a closure sign with an under-sign below it: the word 'uitgezonderd' plus a bicycle symbol. May a cyclist continue here?

  1. Yes, 'uitgezonderd' + symbol exempts cyclists from the ban
  2. No, 'uitgezonderd' + symbol means the ban applies exclusively to cyclists
Show the answer

Correct answer: Yes, 'uitgezonderd' + symbol exempts cyclists from the ban

'Uitgezonderd' + symbol = that group is EXEMPT, the ban does not apply to them.

Why learners get this wrong: An under-sign with the word 'uitgezonderd' (excepted) plus a bicycle symbol means the traffic sign applies TO cyclists specifically, and only to them.

About The zebra crossing: priority, overtaking ban and the 5-metre zone: which statement is correct?

  1. The stopping ban at a zebra crossing only applies before the crossing, not after it.
  2. You only need to give way to a pedestrian once they are actually walking on the zebra crossing, not while they are merely standing next to it waiting.
  3. The exception is STOPPING next to another stationary vehicle, not overtaking.
  4. Right before a zebra crossing you may stop briefly to let a passenger quickly get out, as long as it is short.
Show the answer

Correct answer: The exception is STOPPING next to another stationary vehicle, not overtaking.

The exception is STOPPING next to another stationary vehicle, not overtaking. Driving on and passing the vehicle remains forbidden right before or on the crossing

Why learners get this wrong: The stopping ban at a zebra crossing only applies before the crossing, not after it.

About Stopping and parking bans without a sign: where they always apply: which statement is WRONG?

  1. Vs p.163 - the intersection itself is a stopping ban (never stop).
  2. A parking-ban sign on the road also applies inside the parking bay next to it.
  3. The stopping ban at a bus stop applies along the block marking, or within 12 metres of the sign if that marking is absent.
  4. A stopping ban forbids any interruption of the driving movement, even a few seconds.
Show the answer

Correct answer: A parking-ban sign on the road also applies inside the parking bay next to it.

Arking bays and parking spaces are exempt from prohibition signs. The sign on the road governs the carriageway, not the marked bay next to it

Why learners get this wrong: Within 5 metres of an intersection you may not even stop very briefly.
