What are the signs on the road?

Signs on the road include indication signs, warning signs, prohibition signs, etc.

1, indicator

Usually round and rectangular, with white patterns on a blue background. Used to instruct vehicles and pedestrians to drive in the specified direction and place. Such as going straight, turning left, turning right, stopping, bypassing, etc.

2. Warning signs

Usually equilateral triangle (or diamond), yellow (white) background with black (red) edge, black (or dark blue) pattern. It is used to warn drivers to pay attention to the dangers of the road ahead and the measures that must be taken. For example, predict intersections, road turns, railway crossings, slippery sections, possible rockfall sections, uneven roads, combined traffic, etc.

3. No sign

Usually round, with white background and red edges, red diagonal lines and black patterns. It is a sign that vehicles are prohibited or appropriately restricted according to the situation of streets, highways and traffic flow. Such as no traffic, no parking, speed limit, weight limit, width limit, etc.

Knowledge of traffic safety signs

1. Pedestrian crossing

The corridor composed of white bisectors like zebra crossings on the road is the "crosswalk line", which is specially drawn for pedestrians crossing the road. It is safer for pedestrians to cross the road here. According to the law, cars should slow down when they meet a zebra crossing. When pedestrians cross the road from the zebra crossing, the car should stop to let the pedestrians pass first. Pedestrians must take the crosswalk when crossing the roadway. If there is a crosswalk signal, they must also follow it.

Second, traffic lights

1. Command light signal: when the green light is on, vehicles and pedestrians are allowed to pass, but turning vehicles shall not hinder the passage of straight vehicles and pedestrians; When the yellow light is on, vehicles and pedestrians are prohibited from passing, but vehicles that have crossed the stop line and pedestrians who have entered the crosswalk can continue to pass; When the red light is on, vehicles and pedestrians are not allowed to pass; When the green arrow light is on, vehicles are allowed to pass in the direction indicated by the arrow; When the yellow light flashes, vehicles and pedestrians must pass under the principle of ensuring safety.

2. crosswalk light signal: when the green light is on, pedestrians are allowed to pass through the crosswalk; When the yellow light flashes, pedestrians are not allowed to enter the crosswalk, and those who have entered the crosswalk can continue to pass; When the red light is on, pedestrians are not allowed to enter the crosswalk.

Third, isolation facilities

Traffic isolation facilities mainly include pedestrian guardrails and isolation piers or green isolation belts. Pedestrian guardrail is used to protect the safety of pedestrians, prevent pedestrians from crossing the road into the driveway and prevent vehicles from entering the sidewalk. Isolation piers or green isolation belts are set on the roadway to separate motor vehicles from non-motor vehicles or passing vehicles. Don't cross the guardrail, isolation pier or green isolation belt and walk into the driveway, or you will be in danger of being knocked down by vehicles.
