The signs are distinguished by shapes:

Warning signs alert me to dangers that I might not see or see too late.

I cycle carefully because of hazards such as workers, bumps, or open manholes on the road.

The tramway sign warns of rail vehicles on roads, namely of crossings with rail vehicles. Warning: Danger of falling on the rails!

I have to expect children on the road here.

I cycle carefully because I have to expect dangers on the road.

With these signs, something is always prohibited. I am not allowed to do something.

No vehicles are allowed on this road (except scooters, skateboards, roller skates). I have to push my bike.

I am not allowed to enter this road. If I want to use this road, I have to get off and walk.

I am allowed to carry on riding my bike here.

I am not allowed to carry on riding my bike here.

With these signs, I always have todo something.

Vehicles on the roundabout have priority here. On the roundabout, I always cycle in the direction of the arrows.

At this sign I have to get off the road and use the cycle path.

The cycle path ends here. Caution: I do not have priority when merging into the road.

This path is intended for pedestrians and cyclists. I have to show consideration to pedestrians here.

I must cycle straight ahead here and not turn left or right.

Information signs provide me with information.

When I cycle my bike through a tunnel, I turn on the front and rear lights. So I will be seen in good time by other road users.

There should be no vehicles coming my way on this street. I may turn left or right.

Cyclists may be coming towards me from the opposite direction here.

This sign indicates a parking area (parking space) to me.

I am not allowed to carry on riding my bike here.

Priority signs regulate who has the right of way (priority).

I always have to come to a complete stop at the white line. All vehicles coming from the left and right have priority.

All vehicles coming from the left and right have priority. When a vehicle approaches, I have to stop and wait until the road is clear.

Vehicles coming from the left and right do not have priority. I still look out for other vehicles though.

I have priority on the main road. I still look out for other vehicles though.

After the end of priority road sign, priority to the right applies.

1. Give way line (shark teeth)
Means the same as the "Give way" sign. I give way to vehicles on the main road.

2. Cycle lane

I always use any cycle lanes with my bike.
3. Safety line
I am never allowed to cycle over this line.

4. Pedestrian crossing

Pedestrians have priority at the pedestrian crossing. I stop my bike when someone wants to cross the road on foot.

5. Stop line

I always have to come to a complete stop with my bike and put my foot on the ground. Vehicles on the main road have priority.

6. Lane marking

This marking separates the road into lanes and may be crossed except if a sign prohibits this.

7. Cycle path

If there is a cycle path, I must use it.

The yellow longitudinal stripe is intended for pedestrians, children up to 12 years and non-powered personal transportation devices.

The widened cycle lane allows several cyclists to wait in front of cars to continue their journey.

As a result, I am seen better by the other vehicle drivers (no blind spot)

The pavement is intended for pedestrians and non-powered personal transportation devices. Children up to 12 years of age are allowed to use footpaths and pavements on bikes if there is no cycle path or cycle lane.

There are priority regulations at junctions. A junction can be a crossroads, T-junction or a fork.

1. Crossroads
2. T-junction
3. Fork

1. If a person is directing the traffic, I have to follow their instructions.
2. The traffic lights apply if a person is not directing the traffic.
3. If traffic lights or a person is not directing the traffic, the signs apply.
4. The basic regulations apply if there is no sign, traffic lights or person directing the traffic.

The basic regulations apply if there is no sign, traffic lights or person directing the traffic at a junction.

Priority signs direct the traffic here. Priority signs show me that I must give way to other vehicles or that I have priority.

Red: I stop.

Red/Amber: I get ready to carry on.

Green: I cycle, watch for oncoming traffic as well as pedestrians when turning. They have priority.

Amber after green: I stop.

Red with "Right turn for cyclists" sign: I am allowed to turn right when it's red. Warning: Vehicles coming from the side have priority.

I obey signs given by the police and other traffic wardens (for example, school crossing patrols). I pay attention to the traffic lights when the police or other wardens are not directing the traffic. If there aren't any, the signs and markings apply to me. If these are also missing, I give way to vehicles from the right.

I give way to emergency police, fire department and ambulance vehicles when they are on the road with flashing blue lights and sirens.

It is important that I know how to behave correctly in traffic. I should be able to handle the following situations particularly well:

Look back, hand signal indicating left, get into lane, give way, turn without cutting the corner

Look back, hand signal indicating left, change lane, give way, turn. The white arrows inside the lane show me in which direction(s) I am allowed to cycle.

Hand signal indicating right, give way, enter the roundabout, exit the roundabout.

Look back, arm signal indicating left and move into the middle of the lane, give way, enter the middle of the lane on the roundabout, arm signal indicating right, exit the roundabout.

Choosing the red line is dangerous and therefore prohibited. This is called "cutting corners".
