Application is one of the topics in the Traffic signage block of the Spanish DGT theory. How signage works: types of signs, the order of priority between them and the duty to obey them. Understanding this section well helps you answer the theory-exam questions on this topic with confidence.
In simple terms, this point of the DGT theory establishes that every sign must apply to the entire width of the roadway that the drivers to whom it is addressed are authorised to use. However, its application may be limited to one or more lanes by means of markings on the roadway.
The order of priority between signs (officer, traffic light, vertical sign, road marking) is key; many questions are solved just by recalling it.
Every sign shall apply to the entire width of the roadway that the drivers to whom it is addressed are authorised to use. However, its application may be limited to one or more lanes by means of markings on the roadway.
