These are the new signs the DGT is putting on roads: do you recognize them?

When passing the theoretical exam to obtain a B driving license in Spain, it's essential to be familiar with the hundreds of signs installed by the DGT ( Directorate-General for Traffic) on our country's road network.

Some things are more complicated if these signs are new. In its latest update, the DGT (Directorate General of Traffic) included several new features in its vertical signage catalog . Here are some of the most notable.

Signal P-35

The P-35 sign warns of the danger of approaching a lane where there is a merge and fork where vehicles cross paths, and therefore there is an increased risk of traffic accidents.

R-120 sign

It is located at the entrances to Low Emission Zones (LEZ) , which prohibits the entry of vehicles based on their environmental badge.

Signal P-33

This is an improvement over the previous warning. It indicates that we are approaching an area where traffic is being hampered by a loss of visibility due to fog, rain, snow, smoke, etc.

Signal 24a

It warns of the danger due to the proximity of a place where animals are frequently free and can cross the road, and shows a wild boar due to the high number of cases involving this species.

Signal P-20c

Warns of the proximity of a shared crossing between pedestrians and cyclists. At these crossings, cyclists may ride their bikes, unlike at pedestrian-only crossings, where they must dismount.

Signal S-51b

Indicates lanes reserved exclusively for high-occupancy vehicles. The minimum number of passengers per vehicle will be indicated on the sign itself.
