Regulatory Traffic Signs

What should you do?

As a driver this does not restrict you, but be aware the road may be one where horse riders are directed elsewhere.

How to recognise it

A red ring with a black horse and rider, crossed by a red diagonal bar.

Common confusion

Do not confuse it with the triangular warning sign for horses and riders, which tells you to expect them rather than banning them.

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.
