Overview

• The S991f sign notifies drivers of a device monitoring minimum following distance on a point or stretch of motorway or autovía, with optional upper or lower panels for added details.
• Users on X challenged how sanctions would work when other vehicles cut in, raising concerns about fairness and practical application of distance rules.
• Spain’s updated road-sign catalogue, approved on June 10 and in force since July 1, is rolling out progressively while suppressed signals must be removed within a year.
• The S-41 sign designates a way reserved for cycles and pedestrians, with €200 fines for cars or motorcycles that use it, and its pictogram can be adapted to each road’s layout.
• On specific routes such as Palencia–Villalobón, the DGT requires cyclists to use bike lanes instead of the carriageway or face fines of up to €200, including for riding in the lane when the shoulder is usable.
