How should you act at a point of danger indicated by this sign?

This sign warns of a danger caused by loose chippings or gravel on the road. Under German traffic rules, when you see this sign, you should take special care to avoid situations that could increase the risk of accidents or damage. Specifically:

1. Avoid rapid acceleration because sudden power increases can cause loss of traction on the loose surface, making it harder to control the vehicle.

2. Avoid sudden manoeuvres such as sharp steering or sudden braking, as these actions can easily lead to skidding or slipping on the loose chippings.

3. Maintain the greatest possible distance to the vehicle ahead because loose stones can be thrown up by their tires, potentially causing damage to your vehicle or impairing your vision if stones hit your windshield.

By following all three measures, you reduce the risk of accidents and protect both your vehicle and others around you in this hazardous area.
