It isn’t enough to know HOW to drive the vehicle, physically, you must know how to drive mentally and there are plenty of directions given through signs, signals,colors.



Traffic Signs, Signals, Road Markings



Traffic signs are devices placed along, beside, or above a highway, roadway, pathway, or other routes to guide, warn and regulate the flow of traffic, including motor vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians, equestrians and other travelers.



Traffic signs are used for three different purposes: to regulate traffic, movement,or parking, to warn of potential dangers or changes in road conditions and to provide information and guidance.



Traffic signs have shapes that denote specific meaning. The shape of the traffic sign allows you to quickly determine whether you are being presented with a regulation, a warning, or information or guidance and sometimes the specific meaning of the sign.



Thisshape is used exclusively for stop signs. A driver should be able to immediately recognize that an octagon-shaped sign means STOP.





This shape is used exclusively for yield signs. A driver should be able to immediately recognize that an equilateral triangle shaped sign pointed down means YIELD to other vehicles and pedestrians.





This shape is used exclusively forrailroad advance warnings and civil defense evacuation route markers. The most common use in California is for railroad advance warning. A driver should be able to immediately recognize that a sign in the shape of a circle is means there is a railroad crossing ahead.



This shape is used exclusively to warn of a railroad crossing. A driver should be able to immediately recognize that asign in the shape of a crossbuck means that there is a railroad crossing ahead.





This shape is used exclusively to indicate a no passing zone. This type of sign is rare in California, but is used in other states. A driver should be able to immediately recognize that a sign in the shape of a pennant means passing is not allowed.





This pentagon shape is usedexclusively to indicate a school zone or a school crossing. A driver should be able to immediately recognize that a sign in the shape of a pentagon means that you should watch for children in or around the roadway.





This sign is used exclusively for warning signs (e.g., cross road ahead, end/begin divided road, merging traffic, curves and construction warning signs). A drivershould be able to immediately recognize that a sign in the shape of a diamond indicates that there is a potentially dangerous situation ahead or some change in roadway conditions ahead.



This shape is used for regulatory (e.g., speed limit, no parking, carpool and keep right) and sometimes warning (e.g., slow--children at play) signs. A driver should be able to immediately recognize that asign in the shape of a vertical rectangle indicates a regulatory or warning action you must obey. This shape is used for recreational area guide signs (e.g., rest area and tourist information ahead) in some states.



Various shapes are used for road marker signs (e.g., interstate highway routes and state highway routes).



Traffic signs also have colors that denote specificmeanings. The color of the traffic sign allows you to quickly determine whether you are being presented with a regulation, a warning, or information or guidance.



Red is used exclusively for STOP and YIELD signs, multi-way supplemental plates (e.g., 4-way stop), DO NOT ENTER and WRONG WAY signs, for legend or symbols on certain regulatory signs and as part of Interstate and certain...
