Shape and colour

Triangle with a red rim and a black bicycle: warning of crossing cyclists and moped riders.

Where the sign stands

In the direction that meets an ending cycle path, one warning distance before the point where cyclists join the carriageway.

What the exam asks about this sign

The exam asks who has priority when a cyclist crosses at this sign: that depends on the situation, not on the sign — it only warns that cyclists and moped riders cross. At a cycle crossing without shark's teeth traffic from the right goes first; with shark's teeth for the cyclist, the cyclist must wait. Trap: candidates think the sign gives cyclists priority.

Exam question on this sign

About Warning signs J: triangle, not a command: which statement is WRONG?

  1. Sign J22 warns of cyclists and moped riders.
  2. J-signs are warning signs, not order/prohibition signs; J8 only warns, it does not regulate priority — that follows from B-signs, shark's teeth, or the main rule.
  3. J16 = roadworks. Level crossing with barriers is J10.
  4. J10 = level crossing WITH barriers. Dangerous crossroads is J8.
Show the answer

Correct answer: Sign J22 warns of cyclists and moped riders.

J22 = pedestrian crossing. Cyclists and moped riders is J24.

Why learners get this wrong: Sign J8 (dangerous crossroads) itself regulates who has priority at that crossroads.
