    Either the EU doesn’t follow the international standard, or you got two different versions of “you should know there’s a banana”, “you must eat a banana”, and “caution, a banana!”. There’s no “you can’t eat a banana”.

      Pray tell, what “international standard” would that be?

      Surely you’re not thinking of the “US Federal Highway Administration’s Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices”, right? You know, on account of that not actually being an international standard…

        There’s an entire UN agreement about traffic signaling.

        Round signals with a red border communicate requirements, but without crossing the banana, it’s a requirement to eat it.

        Blue signals do not communicate information, not requirements.

          Are you even familiar with what’s in that agreement?

          Round sign with red border, with or without oblique bar: prohibition or restriction. Prohibition of exceeding 50km/h

          Prohibition of exceeding 50km/h

          Round sign with blue ground and white symbols: mandatory. Mandatory right turn

          Mandatory right turn.
