Which sign warns of the danger due to the proximity of a road section with a steep downward slope?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is the sign marked number 1 (Sign P-16a). This warning sign indicates the proximity of a road section with a steep downward slope. The figure displayed on the sign (e.g., 10%) indicates the gradient of the slope. Exam Tip: Students often confuse the upward and downward slope signs. To distinguish them correctly, look at the diagram on the sign as if you were reading a text, from left to right: If the black line goes down (as in option 1), it is a downward slope. If the black line goes up (as in option 2, sign P-16b), it is a steep upward slope. Option 3 corresponds to the R-1 'Yield' sign, which is a priority sign and is unrelated to the slope of the road.
