Road signs
All 479 road signs in one place
Exactly as Decree No. 294/2015 Coll. defines them — code, official meaning and the annex it comes from. Signs are grouped by what they actually do.
Warning signs
They warn of a hazard the driver cannot see yet. Outside built-up areas they normally stand 100 to 250 m ahead of it.
Priority signs
They decide who goes first. Without them, junctions would not work.
Prohibitory signs
They forbid or restrict something — and stay in force until they end.
Mandatory signs
They order you to do something. A blue circle means you must.
Zone signs
They start and end a regime across a whole area — built-up area, motorway, residential zone.
