Text markings
Are text markings important for the theory test and the practical driving test?
Yes, text markings are important for both the theory test and the practical driving test. You need to know how these markings are used in order to understand the road markings and the traffic regulations. For example, the “STOPP” marking goes with a stop signal that you must obey when driving. Bus lanes and bus and taxi stops are also important for understanding how traffic is organized, especially in urban areas. Being able to identify and understand these markings will help you in both the theory test and the practical driving test.
What are text markings?
The Text marking is a text painted on the road to give information to road users. It can be text such as "STOPP" (stop), "BUSS" (bus), "TAXI", or "SKOLE" (school). These texts are used to mark specific areas of the road, such as stop lines, bus lanes, or bus and taxi stops. The “STOPP” marking is used in places where there is a stop signal, and it is usually placed about 10 meters before the stop line. The “BUSS” marking is used to mark a bus lane or bus stop, while the “TAXI” marking is used to mark a taxi stand.
