Sample question from test 8
signs
What shape and color identify a South Carolina stop sign?
- Eight-sided and red with white letters
- Round and yellow with black letters
- Diamond-shaped and orange with black symbols
- Rectangular and green with white letters
Answer: Eight-sided and red with white letters. A stop sign is an eight-sided red sign with white letters. Its unusual shape lets drivers recognize the required stop even when the face is partly hidden or seen from the back. A round yellow sign is associated with railroad warnings, while orange diamond signs warn about work zones and green signs generally guide roadway destinations. After identifying the stop sign, stop behind the stop line or crosswalk when one is present. The shape is the quick recognition cue, but the required action is a complete stop before entering.
