Question 678 in the bank

What is the meaning of this traffic light when it is placed above your driving lane?

A white square with a thin black border showing a large red X. Meaning: Driving in this lane is prohibited.
  1. Vehicles coming from the opposite direction are prohibited to proceed.
  2. Correct answer: Driving in this lane is prohibited.
  3. 4-way intersection ahead.
  4. It is a lane for public transportation only.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Driving in this lane is prohibited.

A red X placed above a lane means driving in the lane below it is prohibited. You must move carefully into another lane where driving is permitted. The sign refers to those driving in the lane below it. It says nothing about a vehicle coming from the opposite direction, an intersection or a public transportation lane.

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).
