CEVNI inland waterways

A sample item shows A.5, an arrow and 1000 m. What should you identify first?

Short answer

The main sign, arrow and distance as one complete cue set

The governing principle is complete-cue recognition: A.5 sets prohibition, the arrow sets direction and 1000 m sets extent. Ignoring the panel, option length or remembered letters breaks the rule trace. Apply the whole display before choosing and revisit What the Test Evidence Actually Shows.
