Sample question from test 5
signs
What does a red and white downward-pointing triangle mean?
- Slow down and allow traffic with the right of way to cross
- Stop behind the sign every time, even with no traffic
- Enter immediately because the sign grants priority
- The road is closed to all vehicles
Answer: Slow down and allow traffic with the right of way to cross. Kentucky’s yield sign is a red and white downward-pointing triangle. It tells the driver to slow and let traffic that has the right of way cross before entering. A full stop may be needed, but the sign does not demand one in every empty approach. It certainly does not grant priority or close the roadway. The visual cue is the inverted triangle paired with the word yield: reduce speed, scan the conflict area, and stop if traffic or pedestrians require it before proceeding.
