Contradiction in Lesson 9 online regarding MAW and MGW

[ZAW]

Can you please clarify:

In the online theory of Lesson 9, it seems there may be a contradiction of whether a particular sign refers to the MAW or MGW.

Under the following heading, Traffic signs concerning the Maximum Authorized Weight, there is a picture of a round, prohibitive sign of a goods' truck and below it mentions +3,5t.

However, at the very bottom of the same page, under the heading of Traffic signs, the same picture as above refers to the Maximum GROSS Weight.

Please clarify in case I have missed observing something.

Thank you.

Aren't maximum authorized weight and maximum gross weight one and the same


The meaning of the + 3,5 tons sign was changed from actual (or gross ... ie without maximum) weight ,
to the current meaning of maximum allowed / authorized weight in October 2022

[GRO]

Thanks for this posting

However, at the very bottom of the same page, under the heading of Traffic signs, the same picture as above refers to the Maximum GROSS Weight.

Bottom of the page: read M.A.W.
