Traffic Signs

Color and shape tell you what a sign means before you can read it. Red means stop, yield or prohibition; yellow is a warning; orange is road work; green gives directions; blue marks services; brown marks parks and recreation.

Shapes: the octagon is used only for STOP; the downward triangle is YIELD; the pentagon marks a school; the diamond is a warning; the circle is a railroad crossing.

Example: you see a yellow diamond far ahead. Even before you can read it, you know something is coming up, so you slow down.
