Road Signs
Welcome to our car driving school's road signs page! As a new driver, it's important to be familiar with the various road signs that you will encounter on the road. These signs serve as an essential communication tool between drivers, pedestrians, and road authorities, helping to maintain order and safety on the road.
Here are some of the most important road signs you need to know:
- Stop Signs: This red octagonal sign is the most recognizable road sign, and it means that you must come to a complete stop at the designated stop line or at the edge of the intersection before proceeding.
- Yield Signs: This upside-down triangle-shaped sign means that you must slow down and give the right of way to any other vehicle or pedestrian that is already in the intersection.
- Speed Limit Signs: These signs indicate the maximum speed limit that you should not exceed on that particular road or highway. Be sure to pay attention to these signs, as speeding can lead to accidents and other road hazards.
- No Parking Signs: These signs indicate that parking is prohibited in that particular area. Make sure you pay attention to these signs to avoid getting a parking ticket or having your car towed.
- One-Way Signs: These signs indicate that traffic flows in only one direction on that particular road or street. Be sure to follow the arrows on the sign and drive in the designated direction.
- School Zone Signs: These signs indicate that you are entering a designated school zone where children may be crossing the road. Make sure you slow down and be extra cautious in these areas.
- Construction Signs: These signs indicate that there is construction or roadwork ahead. Be sure to slow down and follow any instructions provided by road workers.
- Pedestrian Crossing Signs: These signs indicate that there is a designated area where pedestrians may be crossing the road. Be sure to slow down and be extra cautious in these areas.
Remember, road signs are not just decorations on the side of the road – they are an essential part of safe driving. Make sure you familiarize yourself with these and other road signs to ensure that you stay safe on the road. If you have any questions or need more information, don't hesitate to ask your driving instructor.
