Sample question from test 4
signs
What information does a white traffic sign background commonly identify?
- Speed limits, keep-right instructions, and some guide information
- Construction and maintenance work areas
- Food, fuel, and rest area services
- Recreation and cultural interest areas
Answer: Speed limits, keep-right instructions, and some guide information. Maryland uses white backgrounds for speed limits, keep-right instructions, and some guide signs. The pictured sign is therefore part of a category that communicates a rule or roadway information, rather than a work-zone warning or a service listing. Orange identifies construction and maintenance areas, blue identifies services, and brown identifies recreation or cultural sites. When reading a white sign, inspect its words, numbers, or arrows for the particular instruction. The background narrows the sign's function, but the complete message controls what you do next.
