What is the name of the German road sign that marks the end of all previously posted speed restrictions?

The German road sign marking the end of all previously posted speed restrictions is called “End of all restrictions.”

It is a circular white sign crossed by several diagonal black lines. The sign cancels certain preceding restrictions, such as a posted maximum speed, a no-overtaking rule, or related restrictions shown by signs. It does not erase every traffic law or make the road free of all controls.

Drivers can confuse this sign with the end-of-speed-limit sign, which specifically cancels one displayed speed restriction. Germany also uses signs marking the end of a built-up area or the end of a motorway; those signs change the road’s legal context but do not mean exactly the same thing.

After a restriction ends, the applicable general German speed rules still apply. For example, built-up areas and roads outside built-up areas have different default limits, and road conditions always require a safe speed.
