Questo è solo per avere una sorta di discussione su questo … Capisco che siamo in Germania e capisco che chiunque vive qui o qualsiasi altra cosa ha bisogno di imparare le regole e il segno e tutte quelle cose, ma non è questo il punto di questo. Secondo me, il punto è il segno per la passerella No può essere estremamente confusa per qualcuno che sta solo visitando per un paio di giorni o che non ha familiarità. Non sarebbe molto più facile e più universalmente compreso da tutti nel mondo che vengono in Germania che con una taglio diagonale attraverso quel segno, questa è un’area senza passerella per i pedoni ???
Mi sembra piuttosto logico …

Red circle means no.
But yes, I guess if someone didn’t even know that, this would be an issue. It looks like there’s a fence right beside it though.
Round signs with a red ring are always a prohibition. The picture in the middle then shows what is prohibited.
It would be easier if those signs would follow some kind of international convention. oh wait [they](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vienna_Convention_on_the_Law_of_Treaties) do only the UD does not follow this system.
Rund und rot, das heißt verbot!
If it’s red and round, don’t.
Doesn’t quite rhyme in english, but this helps to memorize for German kids. Whatever is in the circle – don’t do it.
It would be redundant, as the red circle already means “forbidden”.
As you can see here, the slash is also not something universal outside of Germany, some countries do it, others don’t: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prohibitory_traffic_sign#No_pedestrians
It’s a variation of the “No entry to vehicles” sign, which is just the red circle and which you can find in most of Europe. It can also specify various vehicles like bikes, trucks etc inside the circle. To me it’s pretty normal, but I guess I can see how it would be confusing if you don’t know it. It’s usually fairly obvious that you’re not supposed to walk there though, as is the case in the photo with the large fence blocking the path.
Because the [Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vienna_Convention_on_Road_Signs_and_Signals) isn’t specific enough.
For more variations of the sign: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prohibitory_traffic_sign#No_pedestrians
All “no entry” signs have exactly that layout. Either nothing in the middle – counts for all vehicles or with a sign in the middle of who doesn’t have entry, bycicles, pedestrians, cars, motorcycles etc.
Having a slash on the empty sign that counts for all vehicles probably would be too similiar to the no-parking sign.
A diagonal line would mean that it is prohibited to walk. This sign means it is prohibited to walk in.
In the German traffic sign system, round signs with a red border always prohibit something. Without anything inside the red circle, all traffic is forbidden. Otherwise, the pictogram inside signifies what’s excluded.
Signs that should only alert you to some danger, e. g. deers or other wildlife are triangular, with the tip on top.
Zusaaaaaammen
Yeah I don’t get it either.
It is crossed out in some countries, but the majority of European countries seem to omit it. The signs all follow the Vienna convention for traffic signs which call for “X prohibited” to be a circular sign with a red border.

Question is, did you go through?
Hahah I mean I totally get it, it took me forever to get used to German signs too because in my home country of Brazil we also slash for prohibition and no slashs means what you actually should do so that defintely was a mind twist for me at the start.
All I can say is that eventually you’ll get used to it.
Not very colorblind-friendly, is it?
I had this exact complaint to a friend. While driving the sign for Überholverbot it’s also without any diagonal. So confusing… cuz where I come from the red sign means that you HAVE to do it. Like mandatory
