Priority signs

A priority sign is a traffic sign that indicates the order in which vehicles shall pass intersection points. Vehicles often come into conflict with other vehicles and pedestrians because their intended courses of travel intersect, and thus interfere with each other's routes. The general principle that establishes who has the right to go first is called 'right of way' or 'priority'. It establishes who has the right to use the conflicting part of the road and who has to wait until the other does so. The vehicle that does not need to wait is said to 'have the right of way' or to 'have priority.'

1. Warning for an uncontrolled crossroad

This traffic sign indicates a warning for an uncontrolled crossroad. It alerts drivers that a crossroad without traffic signals or priority signs is ahead. Drivers should slow down and be alert for traffic from side roads that may not stop. Yield according to local right-of-way rules (e.g., in many European countries, give way to the right). Typical Locations: Rural areas and roads where no clear priority is assigned.

2. Give way to all drivers

This traffic sign indicates you have to give way. It alerts drivers to yield the right of way to other road users. Drivers must slow down and yield to traffic on the intersecting road. Stop if necessary and proceed only when the way is clear. Common at: minor roads joining major roads, roundabouts and merging lanes.

3. Warning for a roundabout

This traffic sign indicates a warning for a roundabout. It alerts that a roundabout (traffic circle) is ahead. Drivers should slow down and prepare to yield to traffic already in the roundabout.

4. Warning for a crossroad side roads on the left and right

This traffic sign indicates a warning for a crossroads with side roads from the left and right. It alerts that you are approaching an intersection where side roads join from both the left and the right — forming a T-shaped or plus-shaped junction.

5. Stop and give way to all drivers

This traffic sign indicates a warning for a crossroad where you have to stop and give way. It alerts that you are approaching a controlled intersection where you must stop and yield the right of way to other road users. Drivers must come to a complete stop and give way to all traffic on the priority road.

6. Road narrowing, give way to oncoming drivers

This traffic sign indicates a road narrowing where you have to give way to oncoming drivers. It marks a road narrowing where you must yield to oncoming traffic. It's typically used where the road becomes too narrow for two vehicles to pass at the same time.

7. Mandatory direction of the roundabout

This traffic sign indicates a mandatory direction of the roundabout. You are required to enter and drive around the roundabout in the indicated direction. Turning left, right, or going straight without following the roundabout is prohibited.

8. Begin of a priority road

This traffic sign indicates the begin of a priority road. The beginning of a priority road indicates the start of a road where vehicles have priority over traffic coming from intersecting roads. You do not have to yield to other vehicles at junctions along this road. Remain alert for the end of priority road sign, which cancels this right of way.

9. End of the priority road

This traffic sign indicates the end of the priority road. The end of the priority road sign indicates that the road you are on no longer has priority at upcoming intersections, and you must yield to other traffic as usual. Be prepared for other vehicles to have priority and watch for new signs indicating right of way.

10. Curve of the main road

This traffic sign indicates the curve of the main road. A curve of the main road refers to a bend or turn in the primary road you are traveling on, which may affect driving behavior and require caution. Important for drivers to anticipate and adjust steering and speed accordingly.
