"fortunately incorrect"? :-) The full Dutch official definition of the D1 sign is: "D1. Verplichting de door de pijl aangeduide richting te volgen. De plaatsgesteldheid bepaalt de stand van de pijl. Wanneer het verkeersbord dat een niet-gebogen pijl voorstelt, op een hindernis geplaatst is, betekent het dat langs de door de pijl aangeduide richting moet voorbijgereden worden." Translated: "D1. Mandatory to follow the direction indicated by the arrow. The location decides the direction the arrow is pointing. If the traffic sign that represents a non-curved arrow is placed on an obstacle, it means that you have to drive around it on the side indicated by the arrow." So, the definition on the page isn't incorrect, but I only translated the first sentence. I just wanted to have a simple definition in the table without every little detail. But if you want you can always add the definition of the traffic sign when it's placed on an obstacle.
