What does this road sign mean?

[Seppius]

Two busy roads meet at a junction, I know it is a stop sign, but what do the arrows mean? I looked at all the sites with Thai road sign, but these are not there

Arrows point to nearest massage shop

Don't pay attention to any signs. Just Drive. And avoid other vehicles. If you do the right thing and assume everybody else obeying signs you are bound to get yourself killed.

Yes, it's all surprisingly subjective. I gave up driving in BKK some time ago but I do recall getting a ticket for turning right from a "no right-turn" lane and, a week later, getting a ticket from a different BIB for NOT turning right from the same lane (Sathorn area).

Arrows? They can't even see the Indians here..............

Stop before turning left

Stop before going forward or turning right

Some people should stay off the road if they don't understand basic traffic rules or sign.

 

You don't have to be a rocket scientist to know that the arrows indicate the traffic direction in that particular lane, and the stop sign means that you need to stop, and see if traffic is clear, before you enter the road in front.

This is correct. I would have thought it was very obvious.

The arrow leads to the hideout of the BiB hiding and waiting to ticket the innocent law abiding farang.

Passed my 50 questions a long time ago, had a full Thai licence since 2012, you won't find that sign in the book

There is only one lane. It's the bottom of Pratuman soi 5, Pattaya if you want to go and look, and there have been several accidents there, because drivers from all 4 directions very rarely stop

Anyone who doesn't understand that shouldn't be driving at all.

Directional arrows turn, straight etc. But need to stop before proceeding

So if you know the answer, why not stop being a smart a** and answer the question?  Because he is wrong

 

I know the reason for the arrows now, let's see if you do.

 

No one replying has answered it properly. Why the arrows are at a stop sign?

Arrows are for directions. Here it doesn't matter what direction you go, you will have to stop first.

Is this not always the case ? Or did you want to say that the stop sign may be disregarded at will and is rather a proposition than a fixed rule ? (I have to bite my tongue to not elaborate further, but I guess everyone knows what I mean).

You post pictures of 2 lanes, then claim there is only 1 lane. Only a dimwit would do that
