What does a double white line in the centre of the road where the nearest line is solid mean?
Answer: You must not cross or straddle the line
Where the line nearest to you is solid (double white lines), you must not cross or straddle it. This applies regardless of vehicle type, including LGVs.
At a toucan crossing, which combination of road users may cross?
Answer: Pedestrians and cyclists
A toucan crossing (two can cross) is designed for both pedestrians and cyclists to use simultaneously. LGV drivers must give way to both when they have the signal to cross.
What does the 'no stopping' (clearway) sign look like?
Answer: Blue circle with red diagonal cross
A clearway sign is a blue circle with a red diagonal cross (like an X). It means no stopping at any time, and LGV drivers must not stop even to load or unload.
A chevron board (black and yellow diagonal stripes) at a sharp bend tells you:
Answer: The direction the road bends — follow the arrows
Chevron boards are placed on the outside of sharp bends to guide drivers through the curve. The arrows show the direction of the bend, helping LGV drivers navigate safely.
What is the minimum speed sign (blue circle with number)?
Answer: A minimum speed that must be maintained
A blue circle with a white number is a mandatory minimum speed sign. Drivers, including LGV drivers, must maintain at least that speed unless conditions make it unsafe to do so.
A pedestrian crossing light showing a steady green man means:
Answer: Pedestrians may cross — drivers must wait
A steady green man means pedestrians have the signal to cross. Drivers must remain stopped and wait for pedestrians to clear the crossing before proceeding.
