Regulatory sign
No motor vehicles
A red ring containing a car and a motorcycle means no motor vehicles. It bans cars, motorcycles and other powered vehicles from going beyond the sign, often to protect a pedestrian or residential area.
When you see it
- ◆ Do not drive a motor vehicle past this sign.
- ◆ Any exemptions, such as for access, are shown on a plate beneath it.
- ◆ It is used to keep traffic out of pedestrian zones and quiet streets.
- ◆ Cyclists and pedestrians are usually still permitted unless a separate sign says otherwise.
