Illustrative image — The manual draws this code sharing one image with sibling code(s) WM6.2, WM6.3 — shown as printed, not isolated to WM6.1 alone.

Where

On a multi-lane carriageway.

Purpose

To warn that the traffic lanes are reduced from the left (WM6.1) or right (WM6.3) or from both (WM6.2) sides.

Action

Change lanes in time if the lane you are travelling in ends. Check both the blind spots where two lanes end from both sides to make sure there is no other vehicle that is also changing lanes.
