Your Driving and the Road
Road Signs
The road signs you see everywhere are coded by color, shape and symbols.
It's a good idea to know these codes
so that you can quickly grasp the basic
meaning or intent
of
the sign even before you have a chance to read it.

YELLOW indicates a general warning. Slow down and be careful when
you
see a yellow sign. It may signal a railroad crossing ahead, a no-passing
zone, or some other potentially dangerous situation. Likewise, a yellow solid
line painted on the road means "Don't Cross."
