Überholverbot für Kraftfahrzeuge aller Art — No overtaking
Zeichen 276, StVO Anlage 2. You may not overtake multi-track motor vehicles or motorcycles with a sidecar. Single-track vehicles — bicycles, mopeds, solo motorcycles — may still be passed. Verified 2026-08-03.
In plain English
Two cars, the overtaking one in red — red is the one doing the forbidden thing. It bans overtaking MOTOR vehicles, not everything on the road.
What you are looking at
White disc, red rim; two cars side by side seen from the rear — the left (overtaking) one red, the right one black.
Remember it like this
Even when you may pass a cyclist, §5 Abs. 4 StVO requires 1.5 m of clearance in town and 2 m outside. If the road is too narrow to give it, you do not pass.
Easy to confuse with — the exam exploits these
Verbotszeichen (Prohibition) — you may not. usually a red circle. 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.
