What do pavement markings help drivers do, according to the Texas handbook?
- Receive warnings, direction, and traffic regulation from the roadway
- Ignore traffic signs whenever the markings are visible
- Identify only the nearest fuel station
- Replace every traffic signal at an intersection
Answer: Receive warnings, direction, and traffic regulation from the roadway. Pavement markings work with signs and signals to warn and direct drivers and to regulate traffic. They are an active part of the roadway's control system, not merely decoration or a substitute for every other device. Seeing a marking does not authorize ignoring a sign or signal, and markings do not identify fuel stations. The safest reading combines the line pattern with nearby signs, lane position, and traffic movement. Before crossing or changing lanes, identify whether the marking permits, guides, or restricts that maneuver.
