Driving safety on highways has also attracted more and more people's attention, and being able to correctly recognize and understand the signboards on highways will play a very important role in safe driving; in addition, correctly Knowing and understanding the signboards on the highway is also helpful for reaching your destination quickly.

There are many types of signs on highways. First, let’s look at the route name and number signs. There are two common types of high-speed, which start with the capital letters ?G? and ?S?, and are usually followed by one, two, and four digits, such as G3, G11, and G2014. Highways starting with G represent national highways. This type is very common and I believe drivers who often take highways are familiar with it. However, highways starting with S - provincial highways are relatively rare.

In addition, some other traffic signs on the highway are also very important. If you are not careful, they may cause inconvenience to your trip. 1. Toll station information signs. Generally, there will be a reminder of the toll station on the right side of the road sign. At this time, you should slow down, keep a distance between vehicles, and follow the instructions at the toll station to choose a channel. 2. Vehicle distance reference plate. You will often see small signs such as 0M, 50M, and 100M on the highway. This is a distance measurement sign. You can easily see the distance between the car in front and avoid traffic accidents caused by too close distance. 3. Harbor-style parking strip. The harbor-type parking strip extends to the outside of the road, and vehicles can park inside for a short rest. 4. Lane warning signs. Above the expressway or on the road, there will be lane signs (printed on the road) at regular intervals. Include lane designation, maximum and minimum. 5. Service area identification. This is a common sign on the highway, and it is also a must-go place for taking a break and refueling during high-speed travel. (Pictures/Text/Photography: Chen Yalan of Pacific Automotive Network)
