Väjningslinje

Give way line

Markeringen anger en väjningslinje (den kallas ibland "hajtänder"). Markeringen finns vid korsningar där du har väjningsplikt och anger den linje du inte bör passera när du stannar och lämnar företräde. Observera att du inte behöver stanna om det inte kommer någon trafik på den korsande vägen (det måste du däremot göra när du har stopplikt). Du behöver inte heller stanna om en polisman vinkar fram dig eller om en trafiksignal lyser med grön signal i anslutning till vägmärket, eftersom både en polismans tecken och trafiksignaler gäller före vägmarkeringar.

The road marking indicates that you have a duty to give way. The marking is found at junctions where you have a duty to give way and indicates the line you should not cross when giving way. When you have a duty to give way you must always give way to other drivers, pedestrians, cyclists and other road users. You must communicate your intentions to give way clearly by slowing down well in advance, and if necessary, stopping completely. You may only proceed when you can do so without endangering or obstructing other road users. When you have a duty to give way you do not need to stop if there is not any traffic on the intersecting road. When you have a duty to stop, however, you must stop completely and give way before proceeding – regardless of whether there is any traffic on the intersecting road or not. Note that both police officers' signals and traffic signals apply before road signs. If you approach a junction and a police officer signals for you to continue, you must follow the officer's signal, even if the traffic light is red or there is a stop sign. You must still drive carefully and pay attention to other traffic.
