What the exam asks about this sign

The exam asks who may not enter: only motorcycles; a moped, light moped or car may. Trap: candidates read the pictogram as 'all two-wheelers', but mopeds have their own sign (C13). The sign often stands at residential areas with noise problems or at a lane meant for cars only.

Often confused with

• Closed to mopeds C13 — Closed to mopeds, light mopeds and disabled vehicles.
• Closed to all motor vehicles C12 — All motor vehicles, motorcycles included.
• Closed to motor vehicles with more than two wheels C6 — The reverse: more than two wheels excluded, motorcycles may enter.
