Another traffic sign that puts drivers in trouble
An indicator recently introduced in the Highway Code is unknown to most drivers. He shows that parking cars is alternative. It is mounted on public road sectors where stopping of cars is not allowed on odd days, and the ban ends at the first intersection corner in the direction of travel.
This indicator can be placed together with additional panels, which show the beginning of the area of action of the indicator, confirmation of the area of action, but also its end, or arrows having the same meaning.
Similar to this indicator is the one that prohibits parking on even days. This is marked with two lines. As with the odd-day stationary indicator, it also stops working at the nearest corner of the intersection.
