In Norwegian traffic signs and road markings (Skiltforskriften), what is indicated by a circular blue sign with three curved white arrows forming a circle (skilt 406 Påbudt rundkjøring)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D. Mandatory direction of circulation around the central island in a counter-clockwise direction

  1. Step 1: Sign 406 mandates circular traffic flow (counter-clockwise around the island); in Norway this is accompanied by yield signs at every entry. Answer: Mandatory direction of circulation around the central island in a counter-clockwise direction. Why not the others: the alternative options do not correctly describe the statutory meaning under the Norwegian Sign Regulations (Skiltforskriften).
