What the sign says

The same plate as the customs one, but lettered Police: it obliges drivers to stop. It is put up by the police themselves.

The exam trap

Because it appears without warning, it is announced where needed by the other-dangers sign: the exclamation-mark triangle can therefore precede a check.

The signs are the official depictions by the Federal Roads Office, from the annexes of the Signalling Ordinance (SR 741.21): official works, unprotected under Art. 5 of the Copyright Act. The explanations, by contrast, are written from federal law — never taken from a third-party catalogue.
