Show the answer and the explanationHide the answer
Correct answer: C. A road that joins yours from the right.
Why
This yellow diamond is a Side Road sign. The short bar shows a road that joins yours from the right at an angle. Watch for vehicles that turn in or come out of the side road, and be ready to slow down. A Cross Road sign shows roads on both sides. A Y-Intersection sign shows the road splitting into two branches.
Why the other answers are not correct
- A. A Cross Road sign shows a road on both the left and the right; this sign shows one side road.
- B. A road split is shown by a Y-Intersection sign, where the road divides into two branches.
- D. A lane that ends is shown by a Lane Ends sign, not by a bar that joins the main road.
