de contourmarkering

Translation

contour marking

A conspicuity marking intended to show the horizontal and vertical dimensions (length, width and height) of a vehicle (art. 1.1 Regeling voertuigen). A full contour marking draws the whole outline with a continuous line; a partial one draws the length by a line and the height only by the top corners. In the dark you thus see at once how big the vehicle is and whether it stands across the road.
