How to recognise the sign
A triangular warning or priority sign with a red border; its symbol identifies the situation.

J36: Warning: black ice or snow. J35: Warning: poor visibility due to snow, rain or fog. Read the separate application of J35 too; similar appearance does not mean identical meaning.

Practise this sign for your theory exam
Black ice or snow belongs to the Warning category. In the CBR theory exam a traffic sign is almost never asked on its own: you are shown a situation and have to know what you may or must do in it. In the free sign trainer you practise the signs by category, with the explanation shown right after every answer.
