Do not pass: What does this sign tell you about passing?

Answer options

Why

A DO NOT PASS sign marks the start of a zone where overtaking is banned, even when the road looks clear. Keep to your own lane until markings or a sign show that passing is permitted again.

Tip Even a road that looks completely empty ahead does not make passing legal in this zone.
