What do you have to be aware of when you see this traffic sign combination?

The traffic sign combination you see indicates two important aspects:

1. The diamond-shaped sign signals that you are on a priority road. This means that vehicles on this road have the right of way over those on intersecting roads.

2. The rectangular sign below it indicates that there is a left turn ahead. Drivers intending to continue straight must be aware that they will have to yield to oncoming traffic, and they should signal accordingly if turning left.

When navigating through this sign combination, it’s essential to remember that while you have priority on your road, signaling your intended direction (including for a left turn) is vital for safety and clarity for other road users.

Understanding both signs helps ensure proper compliance with German traffic laws, enhancing overall road safety.
