You are driving a road haulage combination vehicle with a maximum authorised mass of 30 t. When may you continue driving after seeing this road traffic sign?

The sign you see indicates a traffic restriction for vehicles with a weight over 7.5 tons, specifically prohibiting them from passing through except in certain circumstances.

According to German traffic regulations, the scenarios that allow exceptions for vehicles like your 30-ton road haulage combination include:

1. Delivering goods to a local resident: This means you can drive through to make a delivery to someone who lives in that area, as it benefits the local community.

2. Traveling on a designated diversionary route: If there's a diversion in place that requires you to take a route through the restricted area, you are permitted to continue driving.

The option concerning compliance with driving and rest periods is not applicable for this restriction since it doesn't pertain to the local traffic rules that govern such signage.

Understanding these exceptions helps ensure you comply with local traffic laws while being able to conduct necessary business effectively.
