In the Netherlands, what does a yellow diamond road sign with a white border designate?

In the Netherlands, a yellow diamond with a white border designates a priority road.

The sign indicates that traffic on that road has priority at upcoming intersections until the priority-road status ends or another rule changes the arrangement. It is a status sign, not a speed-limit sign and not a warning about a particular physical hazard.

Dutch road signs use several diamond designs, so the border matters. A yellow diamond with a white border is associated with priority, while a similar sign crossed by a black diagonal stripe indicates the end of that priority. Drivers must still obey traffic lights, police directions, and any signs that assign a different priority at a specific junction.

Priority-road signs do not mean that drivers may enter intersections without checking. Safe driving still requires attention to pedestrians, cyclists, weather, and vehicles that may fail to yield.
