Traffic signs

A traffic sign is a standardized visual symbol placed along roads to guide, warn, or regulate drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians. These signs provide essential information about road conditions, rules, directions, and potential hazards, helping to ensure safety and smooth traffic flow. They come in various shapes and colors—such as triangular warning signs, circular prohibitory or mandatory signs, and rectangular information signs—each designed for quick recognition and clear understanding.

Warning for a danger with no specific traffic sign.

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

Warning for a double curve, first left then right.

Warning for a double curve, first right then left.

Warning for a road narrowing on the left.

Warning for a road narrowing on the right.

Warning for a railroad crossing without barriers.

Warning for a railroad crossing with barriers.

Warning for a railroad crossing with 1 railway.

Warning for a road with two-way traffic.

Direction prohibited (road with one-way traffic).

Vehicles higher than indicated prohibited.

Road narrowing, give way to oncoming drivers.

Driving straight ahead or turning right mandatory.

1. Warning for a danger with no specific traffic sign

This traffic sign indicates a warning for a danger with no specific traffic sign. It's a general warning sign used when there is a hazard ahead that does not have its own dedicated warning sign. For examples: road accidents, flooded roads and roads blocked by fallen trees. It usually has a supplementary sign attached that tells drivers of what hazard to expect.

2. Warning for cattle on the road

This traffic sign indicates a warning for cattle. It alerts drivers to the possible presence of cows, bulls, or other domestic livestock on or near the road. It helps prevent accidents, especially in rural or agricultural areas. Cattle may cross or walk along the road, either freely or under the supervision of a herder. Drivers should: slow down, be ready to stop suddenly, avoid honking or sudden movements. Typical Locations: farmlands, pastures near roads, unfenced grazing areas, mountain roads.

3. Warning for crossing deer

This traffic sign indicates a warning for crossing deer. It alerts drivers to the potential presence of deer or other wild animals crossing the road. It is essential in areas where wildlife-vehicle collisions are common. Wild deer may suddenly cross the road, especially at dawn or dusk. Drivers should: reduce speed, stay alert, watch both sides of the road. Typical Locations: forests, national parks, wildlife corridors or countryside highways.

4. Warning for a speed bump

This traffic sign indicates a warning for a speed bump. It alerts drivers of an upcoming raised bump in the road designed to slow down traffic. Drivers should reduce speed to avoid discomfort, damage to the vehicle, or loss of control when driving over the bump. Typical Locations: residential areas, school zones, hospitals, pedestrian zones, roads with traffic calming measures.

5. Warning for a bad road surface

This traffic sign indicates a warning for a bad road surface. It alerts drivers to poor or uneven road conditions ahead. Drivers should slow down and be cautious of potholes, loose gravel, or irregular pavement. Common in: rural roads, construction zones, or temporarily damaged surfaces.

6. 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.

7. 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.

8. Give way ahead

This traffic sign indicates you have to give way ahead. It alerts drivers a Give Way (Yield) sign is coming up soon. It's used as a pre-warning to avoid sudden braking and used before intersections where visibility is low.

9. 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.

10. 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.
