Hinweiszeichen · Information

In plain English

A zone, not a stretch. 30 applies on every street inside it until the exit sign — through junctions, round corners, everywhere.

What you are looking at

Wide white rectangle with a thin black border; inside, a red-rimmed disc showing 30, and the word ZONE.

Remember it like this

Zones are normally unsigned inside — which is exactly why rechts vor links (§8 Abs. 1 StVO) applies at almost every junction in one.

Easy to confuse with — the exam exploits these

Hinweiszeichen (Information) — where you are. usually a blue or green panel. Checked against StVO Anlage 1–3 on 2026-08-03.

Original practice questions — not the amtlicher Fragenkatalog. Every question, sign description and scenario here is written by us and covers the same StVO rules as the official Klasse B test. We are not TÜV, DEKRA or a Fahrschule, and we do not reproduce the official catalogue. Road signs themselves are amtliche Werke (StVO Anlage 1–3). Rules checked against StVO and FeV on 2026-08-03.

Fines and Punkte are indicative. The amounts shown come from published Bußgeldkatalog tables, not from statute, and are last verified 2026-08-03. The binding figure is the one on your own Bußgeldbescheid.
