Falling rocks sign
What it means
To warn that rocks could fall on the carriageway from the left (W334, TW334) or from the right-hand side (W335, TW335). Slow down to be able to stop within their sight distance if a fall occurs or has occurred. Such falls occur more often when it rains and therefore reduce your speed further since your stopping distance during rainy weather will be longer.
Where you’ll see it
Especially in mountainous areas.
