What does this sign mean?
- A Wait at the barriers
- B Wait at the crossroads
- C Give way to trams
- D Give way to farm vehicles
Why this is the answer
Obey the 'give way' signs. Trams are unable to steer around you if you misjudge when it's safe to enter the junction.
Why the other answers don't fit
- A
- Wait at the barriers — Barriers belong to level crossings, with signals of their own.
- B
- Wait at the crossroads — A crossroads is signed quite differently.
- D
- Give way to farm vehicles — Farm traffic warnings show a tractor.

Where this question comes from
The question, its options and the explanation are reproduced word for word from the DVSA revision question bank under licence. The licence requires them to appear unaltered, so we cannot reword them and neither can anyone else — that is why you will meet the same wording on other sites. Everything else on this page is written by Theory Hub: the explanation of why each wrong answer is wrong, the topic guide and the revision notes.
