Road Signage: Essential for Safety and Navigation

Road signage is crucial for ensuring safety and effective navigation on South African roads. These signs communicate vital information to drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists, helping to prevent accidents and facilitate smooth traffic flow. Understanding the various types of road signage, their meanings, and codes is essential for road users and safety management.Road signs are categorized into regulatory signs, warning signs, and informational signs. Regulatory signs inform drivers of laws that must be obeyed, while warning signs alert them to potential hazards. Informational signs provide guidance about directions, distances, and services available. Each sign is designed with specific colors, shapes, and symbols to convey its message clearly.
