"If People Are Trying To Bring You Down, It Only Means You Are Above Them"
These signs warn you of hazards ahead, such as roundabouts, crossroads, dangerous bends or anything else that would call on you to drive more carefully. You should always take special care when you see a warning sign. If you fail to observe these signs, you could create a hazard.
All warning signs have the same format.
- They are diamond or rectangular in shape.
- Have a yellow background with a black border.
- Use a black symbol to show the hazard ahead.
They are also upright, meaning they are at the side of the road or mounted on a wall instead of painted onto the road surface.
These signs indicate what you must do under road traffic law, so all road users must obey them. Regulatory signs are divided into a number of groups:
- Upright signs
- Road markings
- Traffic lights
