Road sign with white arrows and lines – that's what it means

2023-05-08T19:54:58.570Z

Highlights: Motorists should always pay attention to the road sign with the arrows and the line on the highway. Anyone who disregards it must expect fines and one point. An alternative to the crossed-out white arrow is the traffic sign with white arrows and a line on which the right arrow bends to the left. This sign indicates to motorists that the hard shoulder must be cleared immediately, as described in fuehrerschein.de.. Motorists who do not comply with this road sign will not only face a fine, a fine of up to 75 euros is possible.



Motorists should always pay attention to the road sign with the arrows and the line on the highway. Anyone who disregards it must expect fines and one point.

It is not only in city traffic that drivers repeatedly have problems with traffic signs that no one knows – such as the halved car with four figures. Especially on the motorway, there are always signs that are not known to everyone. As echo24.de has already reported, the orange arrow is also one of them. And also with the white arrows with the line, motorists should know what to do.

Traffic sign 223.1 is a regulatory sign. It's a blue, square sign with three white arrows pointing upwards. One of the arrows is separated by a solid white line.

Anyone who disregards the sign with white arrows and line must expect a penalty

Motorists who do not comply with this road sign will not only face a fine. In case of non-compliance, a fine of up to 75 euros is possible and one point.

The penalties can be particularly drastic if, according to the portal fuehrerschein.de, "a hazard or even an accident with property damage or personal injury follows the disregard of the sign".

Road signs with the three white arrows and line: meaning for motorists

The traffic sign with the white arrows and the line is about the fact that the hard shoulder must be used as a right lane on the motorway. This means that road users on this section have not only two lanes at their disposal, but three. The lane boundary becomes the guideline.

Traffic signs with white arrows and the line: End of arrangement by the traffic sign

Motorists are therefore allowed to use the hard shoulder as a carriageway on the motorway, provided that the corresponding traffic sign is visible. However, you should pay attention to when the end of this arrangement comes – on the traffic sign, with the white arrows and the line, the right arrow is crossed out in red. From this moment on, only two lanes will be available to motorists again.

The TÜV Thuringia expressly points out that the hard shoulder on motorways may not be used as a shortcut and may only be used if the corresponding traffic sign gives the order. The use is reserved exclusively for emergencies and breakdown vehicles.

Road signs with white arrows and the line: alternatives on highways

An alternative to the crossed-out white arrow is the traffic sign with white arrows and a line on which the right arrow bends to the left. This sign indicates to motorists that the hard shoulder must be cleared immediately, as described in fuehrerschein.de.

Depending on the motorway, the traffic sign can also be found with three to four arrows. The meanings always remain the same. The same applies to the penalties for non-compliance.
