Answer options
- AThe road makes a sharp curve or turn to the left.
- BThe road makes a sharp curve or turn to the right. Correct
- CThe road splits at a Y-shaped intersection.
Why
A chevron alignment sign is placed on the outside of a sharp curve, and its point shows which way the road bends, in this case to the right. Reduce your speed before the curve and follow the direction of the chevron.
Tip As you go through the bend, aim your eyes far ahead in the direction the chevron points so you stay centered in your lane.
