The sign "Note by verbal indication" (1012-34) in Germany is used to indicate a situation where information or instructions must be conveyed verbally. This often occurs in scenarios where there may be additional information that drivers need to be aware of which is not covered by standard traffic signs.

For example, this sign may be placed in areas where traffic changes frequently or where specific conditions apply, like during roadworks or special events. When you see this sign, be attentive to the potential need for verbal instructions from officials or authorities directing traffic.

It is important to stay alert and follow any verbal indications given in such situations as they are intended to ensure safety and proper traffic flow.
