All three signs in the image prohibit the access of vehicles with a width greater than 2.30 m, but in different ways:
Sign 1 (“Traffic prohibited in both directions”) prohibits the access of all vehicles, regardless of size or type. Therefore, the access of those with a width over 2.3 m is also automatically prohibited.
Sign 2 is specific: it prohibits the access of only vehicles with a width greater than 2.30 m, therefore it applies strictly according to gauge.
Sign 3 prohibits the access of motor vehicles (that is, any motor vehicle intended for road travel) and animal-drawn vehicles. Therefore, if a motor vehicle has a width greater than 2.30 m, its access is in any case prohibited by the fact that it is a motor vehicle, regardless of width. It does not mean that sign 3 regulates width, but that vehicles wider than 2.30 m, if they are motor vehicles or animal-drawn, in any case fall under its prohibition.
Therefore, even if only sign 2 directly refers to width, all three signs have the effect of prohibiting the access of vehicles wider than 2.30 m, which is why all answer options are correct.
The correct answer is: A, B and C
