The meaning of prohibitory or restriction signs begins at their location. In the absence of signalling specifying the length of the sector to which the regulation applies, or of signs announcing the end of the prohibition or restriction, the meaning of these signs ends at the nearest intersection.

For example, the area of action of the sign “No stopping” begins at its location and, if installed alone, stopping is prohibited up to the corner of the first intersection, regardless of the length of the sector. It may be accompanied by additional panels: the panel “Arrow pointing up” indicates the beginning of the area of action, the panel “Arrow with two points, one up and one down” confirms the area of action, and the panel “Arrow pointing down” signifies the end of the area of action of the sign. Also, the sign may be accompanied by an additional panel “Arrow pointing up” which signifies the beginning of the area of action and specifies, in meters, the distance of action of the sign.

Thus, in the absence of signalling specifying the length of the regulated sector or of a sign announcing the end of the prohibition or restriction, the meaning of these signs ends at the nearest intersection.

The correct answer is: C

Regulation** - Article 66

[...]
(6) The meaning of prohibitory or restriction signs begins at their location. In the absence of signalling specifying the length of the sector to which the regulation applies or of signs announcing the end of the prohibition or restriction, the meaning of these signs ends at the nearest intersection. When prohibitory or restriction signs are installed together with the sign announcing entry into an urban area, their meaning is valid on that road up to the sign “Exit from urban area”, except where other signs provide otherwise.
