Multi-storey car park

Information signsSign no. 4.21OSR art. 48

What the sign says

Marks a covered or underground car park. The sign may be completed by the distance and direction to reach it.

The exam trap

A car park open to the public is still traffic space: priority from the right, the drink-drive limits and the ban on hand-held phones apply as on the public road.

The signs are the official depictions by the Federal Roads Office, from the annexes of the Signalling Ordinance (SR 741.21): official works, unprotected under Art. 5 of the Copyright Act. The explanations, by contrast, are written from federal law — never taken from a third-party catalogue.
