Question 5

When you see this sign you must -

• Only enter the street if you live in the local zone.

This one is asked against a picture. The answer sets 40 km/h and the wrong answers argue about local residents, so the picture is either a plain 40 km/h sign or an area sign carrying one. The text does not settle which. So the question is readable here and stays out of the practice draw.
