After staring at this sign for a long time I realized it was part of a car wheel. According to Wikipedia it means you can't drive a car on the road if you have studded tires.
This one confused me because once you cross this sign you can still walk. It turns out it means the end of a pedestrian area. The road changes from pedestrians only to cars and pedestrians.
Back when I didn't know any Swedish I just saw the arrow and the word cykel, which looks like it should mean bicycle. The sign says "does not apply to bicycles". The cars drive on the side the arrow points to and the bikes drive on the opposite side.
There were a lot of these signs during the window warning for falling snow.
And falling icicles. You can't really see the icicles but they were probably close to a metre long.
The stick means don't walk here because snow or ice might fall on you.
This is outside the elevator where I live. It translates to: "Warning, Crushing Hazard. Dangerous to transport cargo in elevators with no inner door or photocell." I just like the picture and the word klämrisk, it makes me think of clams.
And my personal favourite: the cat crossing. It appears to be an actual sign, although I can't seem to find it online. The building beside it is a museum for Pelle Svanslös, a cat with a bunch of children books written about it. The name of the cat translates roughly to Pelle No Tail so I think they specially made the sign.
