North Carolina Road Signs Recognition Test – 3

Traffic signal ahead. Slow down and be prepared to stop, if necessary.

Low clearance / Maximum height. The overpass has a low clearance. Do not proceed if your vehicle is too tall to pass under.

One of the most important caution signs is the stop ahead sign. It is placed far ahead of a stop sign when the driver’s view of the stop sign is blocked by a curve or other objects.

This sign tells you that you are near an area where pedestrians may cross the street. Pedestrians must be given the right of way if they are in marked crosswalks or in unmarked crosswalks formed by imaginary lines extending from the sidewalks across the street.

The flagger sign warns drivers of construction or maintenance on the road ahead where a flagger wearing an orange vest is stationed at the site to control traffic.

No Right Turn. You cannot make a right turn at this intersection. Remember that a red circle with a slash means no. The sign shows you what is not allowed.

Merging Traffic sign. This sign is posted where two lanes come together to form one lane.

Remember, this is a square sign with a white horizontal line inside a red ball. The sign is not circular.

Two-way traffic ahead. This sign is also used to indicate that you are already on a two-way road.

Yellow is used for general warning and advisory of unexpected roadway conditions. Remember, warning signs are normally black on yellow, but when they are black on orange, they warn of conditions for construction or maintenance areas.
