The car body is usually one of the most visible elements of the car, quite a protagonist in its aesthetics. The first thing that catches your attention is the color, the most common being white, gray, black, red, dark blue or dark green. However, many people look for brighter colors. striking and differentThey even paint the body to make it different.
In this line of 'tuning' a car, there are other extras that can be added or reinforced, such as putting larger tires, adding colors to the interior of the vehicle, changing the exhaust pipe for a larger one, installing more powerful speakers so that the music can be heard even on the street, and a long etcetera.
A way to decorate our car in a more discreet way but also providing something personal to the driver, is placing some sticker with some meaning. From ABC we have provided you with the meaning of several of them, such as that of a donkey, a target with the flag of Spain or a yellow cross. However, today we are talking about a lesser-known but equally important sticker that, depending on where we place it, can mean one thing or another.
It is an arrow-shaped sticker, usually red, which, as we told you, indicates different things depending on its location. The most common thing is that the arrow sticker is placed on the bumper, pointing to the underside of the vehicle. Although we can see it on normal cars, this sticker is more common on competition cars, providing a quick way to locate where the hitch is to pull the car if it leaves the track and has to be 'rescued', something very typical of racing cars. careers. This sticker or symbol is usually well known by assistance mechanics, firefighters or race marshals.
Similarly, there is another arrow sticker that is usually placed on the hood and is an indicator of where is the circuit breaker located, a system that must be activated in the event of an accident to prevent the current from circulating and prevent the car from catching fire. Thus, since these are stickers that are more closely linked to the world of racing, if you place any of them, the DGT (General Directorate of Traffic) may consider it an infringement.
Specifically, the traffic agency, according to the General Regulations for Drivers, indicates that stickers inspired by competition or racing are taken as a way to encourage speed, something that is prohibited and is punishable by a fine of 200 euros for this infraction, this same case being that of reflective stickers.
