You are edging along in the car from which the picture is taken. What should you do if the signals at A start to flash red?

  • Incorrect: Stop immediately at the spot from where the picture was taken.
  • Correct: Stop just before the signal at A.
  • Incorrect: Drive up to the signals at B and stop, as A is only an advance warning.
  • Incorrect: Give passage for the vehicle behind you.


Red flashing light (SIG16)
Stop. A vehicle may not pass the stop line or, in the absence of such, the signal.

As there is no visible stop line, you are to stop just before the signal.

A driver who is obliged to stop or is stopping at a traffic signal shall stop at the stop line. In the absence of a stop line, the driver shall stop right before the signal.” (Swedish Road Traffic Ordinance)
