Road Signs and MarkingsDifficulty: 1/5

You see this sign while riding your motorcycle: a red circle with a motorcycle symbol above a car symbol. What does this sign mean regarding carrying a pillion passenger?

Explanation

A red circular sign with a motorcycle above a car means ‘no motor vehicles’ are allowed beyond that point. This includes solo riders and those carrying pillion passengers. Under Rule 85 of the Highway Code, if you do carry a pillion it must be on a proper seat, facing forward with feet on the footrests, and only if the motorcycle is designed for a passenger and you hold a full licence. However, where this sign is present, you must not proceed at all on a motorcycle, with or without a pillion.
