Regulatory Signs

Understanding the Motor Cars Only Sign

Motor Cars Only

Where: At the beginning of a road, lane, or section of a road designated exclusively for motorcars. It is commonly found on urban roads, expressways, or restricted lanes where only passenger vehicles are allowed.

Purpose: To indicate that the road or section of the road may be used only by motorcars. It helps control traffic flow by restricting certain types of vehicles, such as trucks, buses, motorcycles, or bicycles, from entering, ensuring safety and efficiency by limiting vehicle types to those compatible with the road's design and capacity.

Action Required by Driver: You may drive only a motorcar on the road or section indicated by this sign, following the designated part of the road as shown by the sign. Vehicles not classified as motorcars (e.g. trucks, motorcycles, or buses) may only use this road if a separate sign allows their type of vehicle. Drive carefully, remain in the correct lane, and be aware of other motorcars using the road, obeying any additional signs indicating speed limits, lane restrictions, or entry points.
