On my street there is one-way traffic, but it is ignored

Police and municipal enforcement can take action against unauthorized disregard of the mandatory direction of travel. Before enforcement can proceed, it is always assessed whether the traffic situation is sufficiently clear that there is one-way traffic. If this is not the case, the traffic situation is first clarified. On some one-way roads there is an exemption regulation. Then residents and/or business owners are allowed to drive against the direction of traffic with an exemption. In this case, the indication "except for dispensation holders" is always shown below the traffic sign.
