Three-sided red yield signs mean you must slow down and be ready to stop, if necessary, to let any vehicle, bicyclist, or pedestrian pass before you proceed.

Some roadways are designed to accommodate different traffic demands during the day through the use of a reversible lane system. Appropriate travel lanes on a roadway utilizing a reversible lane system are indicated as follows:

• Steady Red X: No travel allowed in this lane in the direction you are going.
• Steady Yellow X: Clear the lane.
• Flashing Yellow X: Left turn permitted.
• Steady Green X: Travel in lane.

Diamond shaped signs warn of existing or possible hazards on roadways or adjacent areas. General warning signs are yellow with black words indicating the potential hazard, or black symbols visually describing the potential hazard.

All red signs are regulatory signs and must be obeyed. They indicate stop or prohibition and include signs like stop, yield, do not enter and wrong way.

Winding road ahead.

The road ahead winds back and forth. Slow to a safe or indicated speed.

Pedestrian crossing.

Just ahead is a location where people on foot often cross. Use caution as you approach and drive more slowly and carefully, watching both sides of the street for pedestrians.

When pedestrians are in the crosswalks, they must be given the right-of-way.

Divided highway ends.

The divided road ends ahead. Two-way traffic will no longer be divided by a center island. You will be on an undivided roadway with two-way traffic. Keep to the right.
