Information signs
Passing place on a narrow road
What it means
This marks the widened spot where two vehicles can get past each other on a single-track road. You will meet them on rural lanes, sometimes only every few hundred metres. Pull into one on your left, or wait opposite one on your right, and never leave the car parked in one.
