No Over Taking Road Sign
The no overtaking road sign is circular with a red border meaning that it is giving drivers an order. As the no overtaking sign is regulatory, it is illegal to overtake. The no overtaking restriction ends when the lines in the road change from a continuous white line, to a broken line. No overtaking signs are often located on bends, dips in the road or where there are hills.
No Stopping Road Sign
The red cross means no stopping, not even to pick up or set down passengers. The sign is used to indicate a 24-hour clearway (usually on a rural road) or may be incorporated into other signs with the words? No stopping? (e.g.? no stopping except local buses? Sign at bus stops). On a 24-hour clearway, the prohibition of stopping applies only to the main carriageway. You may stop in a lay-by unless there are signs to say otherwise. A 24-hour clearway does not have any special road markings, but there should be smaller repeater signs at approximately one-mile intervals.
All vehicles prohibited except non-mechanically propelled vehicles being pushed by pedestrians road sign
