Warning, Construction & Information SignsStandalone practice
A yellow diamond-shaped sign with black symbols is ahead. What type of message does a sign with this shape and color give?

Correct answer: A warning of a special condition or hazard on the road ahead
Why
Sign shape and color let you understand a sign before you can read it. Nevada uses the national sign system: red means stop or do not, white rectangles state rules, green gives directions, blue shows services, brown shows recreation areas, and orange marks work zones. A warning sign does not always state a law, but it gives you time to adjust your speed and lane position before you reach the hazard.
