In a roadworks section a red-ringed sign shows a black 50, and later you see a white circle with a black diagonal stripe. What does the second sign mean?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D. The 50 mph limit ends, and the national speed limit for your vehicle applies

  1. Step 1: The black stripe marks the end of a restriction, here the 50 mph limit. Step 2. You then follow the national speed limit for your own vehicle and road type. Answer: The 50 mph limit ends, and the national speed limit for your vehicle applies. Why not the others: The national limit is not 70 mph for all vehicles, minimum speeds are blue, and a closure is not signed this way.
