What should you do?

If driving a goods vehicle with that many axles, choose a different route; cars are not affected.

How to recognise it

A red ring with a black axle symbol and x3, crossed by a red diagonal bar.

Common confusion

It refers to axles rather than weight, unlike the No entry for large vehicles sign that shows a lorry with a tonnage figure.

Explanation written by the My Driving Test editorial team using the Department of Transport Traffic Signs Manual conventions and the RSA Rules of the Road.
