1. Dead end
A dead-end road is a road that does not provide a through route for some or all vehicles. It may end completely, terminate at a barrier or continue as a path that only certain road users may use.
Drivers may normally enter a dead-end road to reach homes, businesses, parking places or other destinations, but they must be prepared to turn around or leave by the same route. Signs may indicate that pedestrians or cyclists can continue beyond the point where motor traffic cannot.
What does a dead-end indication mean in Hungary?
Hungary uses Zsákutca for a dead end. Its purpose is to describe the route, rather than to prohibit all entry.

Can pedestrians or cyclists continue beyond a motor-traffic dead end in Hungary?
A Hungarian variant can indicate that cyclists have a route through. Read that indication and any signs on the continuation; a cycle exit is not an exit for a car.

Does a dead-end indication change speed or priority rules in Hungary?
The no-through information itself does not assign junction priority or a numerical speed limit. Continue to obey the actual speed, access, parking and priority controls. If you need to turn around, use a suitable lawful place, check for pedestrians and cyclists, and do not obstruct the space needed for other vehicles to turn.
