signs
What information does a typical yellow diamond-shaped warning sign provide?
- A possible danger or special roadway condition ahead
- A maximum legal speed that applies in all weather
- The location of a fuel or lodging service
- A command to enter only in the arrow's direction
Answer: A possible danger or special roadway condition ahead. Warning signs alert drivers to possible danger, a hazard, or a special situation ahead. They are usually yellow with black lettering or symbols and diamond shaped. Their message calls for an adjustment in speed or attention before the driver reaches the condition. A speed limit is a regulatory message, services use guide signs, and directional commands belong to lane-use or other regulatory signs. When a yellow diamond appears, look beyond the sign, identify the developing condition, and prepare to slow or stop if the roadway requires it.
