Motorists should be careful: Anyone who ignores the black and white sign will have to pay a fine.

Motorists and the forest of signs on German roads - an endless story.

Some traffic signs are quite unfamiliar.

A black circle with a black dot on a white surface, for example, as

echo24.de

reported.

Even with the no-parking sign, not all the details are entirely clear.

And with a very special sign, drivers really start thinking.

A black and white sign with a car cut in half and four figures makes for a shrug.

This traffic sign has been on the road for over three years.

However, it has not yet gained much popularity.

However, there are severe fines if you simply ignore it.

Exceptions: Black and white sign with a car cut in half and four figures

When looking for a parking space, motorists may come across the traffic sign with a car cut in half and four figures.

If this is the case, then this free parking space should be avoided at all costs.

However, not because there is a fear that the car will then be halved - no!

Rather, these are parking spaces for car-sharing vehicles.

On the portal

carsharing.de

it says:

“The CarSharing sign is used as an additional sign to the traffic sign “Parken” (314 or 315) to mark CarSharing parking spaces.

General car-sharing parking spaces in public spaces, where each car-sharing vehicle may be parked, can be identified with this combination of signs"

.

According to the Road Traffic Act (StVO), such vehicles can even be parked in the restricted no-parking area if the black and white sign with a car cut in half and four figures is attached as an additional sign.

Traffic sign with a car cut in half and four figures: penalties for illegal parking

If you still can't resist the temptation and park your car in one of the areas that are under the protection of the car cut in half and the four figures, you have to expect a fine.

According to the StVO, anyone who is caught doing so must expect a fine of 55 euros.

You can also be towed away - and that gets really expensive.

Based on a recent survey from 2019, this could happen particularly frequently in Karlsruhe or Munich.

According to this, Karlsruhe is known as

“Germany's car-sharing capital”

with 3.23 car-sharing vehicles per 1,000 inhabitants.

Munich (2.13), Hamburg (1.61) and Berlin (1.60) follow.

Stuttgart has 1.40 vehicles per 100,000 inhabitants.
