Width limit sign
Afrikaans: Wydtegrens teken
What it means
Indicates to the driver of a vehicle that he or she shall not proceed beyond the sign unless the overall width of the vehicle, is less than the width indicated in metres, by means of a number on such sign. Do not enter this area if the overall width of the vehicle you are driving exceeds the width indicated on the sign.
Dui aan die bestuurder van 'n voertuig dat hy of sy nie verby die teken mag gaan nie tensy die algehele wydte van die voertuig minder is as die wydte wat in meter aangedui word (deur middel van 'n nommer op so 'n teken). Moenie hierdie area binnegaan as die algehele wydte van die voertuig wat jy bestuur die wydte wat op die teken aangedui word, oorskry nie.
Where you’ll see it
On any public road where there is a limit in the road width.
Op enige openbare pad waar daar 'n beperking in die padwydte is.
