If a No Parking sign has an auxiliary plate reading '8-20,' parking is prohibited only between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.
Answer: ○ True
Explanation
Auxiliary plates limit things such as the hours and the targets of the main sign's restriction. '8-20' shows the restricted hours, so outside 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. the no-parking restriction does not apply.
