Question 1382 in the bank

What is the meaning of this sign?

A white-bordered blue rectangle with a yellow taxi label reading taxi in Hebrew and English, a red circle with red slash below, crossed by a black diagonal stripe. Meaning: The end of the Taxi Rank.
  1. Taxi rank. No entry to the street in which the sign is placed.
  2. Correct answer: The end of the Taxi Rank.
  3. The beginning of a public bus station.
  4. Taxi rank. Parking and stopping is forbidden to all other vehicles.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: The end of the Taxi Rank.

The basic taxi rank sign shows the word taxi with the no-stopping-and-parking symbol, meaning only taxis may stop in that area. A black diagonal stripe across a sign usually marks where its validity ends. So this sign shows the end of the taxi rank, and beyond it the ban on other vehicles stopping and parking no longer applies.

Topic: Traffic signs. The bank marks it for these classes: Light truck (C1), Heavy truck (C), Bus (D), Motorcycle (A), Tractor (1), Private car (B).
