You are driving a lorry of gross vehicle weight rating of 12 tones. Are you allowed in this situation to turn left at the nearest junction?
Explanation

Correct answer: No

The F-19 'panel direction sign indicating a prohibition of entry' sign, visible on the right side of the road, informs about the traffic organisation at the next junction. The directional arrow pointing left displays the symbol of the B-5 'prohibition of entry for goods vehicles' sign, which applies to vehicles with a maximum permissible mass exceeding 3.5 tonnes. Therefore, when driving a 12-tonne vehicle, you are not permitted to turn left.
