The D-40 'Residential zone' sign visible in the picture means that you are entering an area with special traffic rules. According to Art. 20 para. 2 of the Road Traffic Act, the permitted vehicle speed in this zone is 20 km/h. This means you must not travel at a higher speed, because pedestrians have absolute priority here and may use the full width of the road.
