On the A9 highway in Germany, a combination of traffic signs has caused confusion among drivers, leading to numerous speeding fines. The problematic signs include a speed limit of 80 km/h and a no-overtaking rule, which drivers mistakenly interpreted as applying only to certain vehicles. As a result, car drivers believed that the speed limit did not apply to them. The police in Thuringia clarified that the speed limit applies to all vehicles, while the no-overtaking rule only applies to certain ones.
Drivers misunderstand signs, get speed fines on German A9.
