Motorcycle · Guide signs

While riding on a highway, you approach a large sign with white lettering on a green background. What kind of information does a sign like this give you?

Correct answer: Route guidance such as destinations, distances and exits.

Answer options

  1. ALegal requirements such as speed limits and turn restrictions
  2. BWork zone alerts such as lane closures and flaggers
  3. CHazard warnings such as sharp curves or slippery pavement
  4. DRoute guidance such as destinations, distances and exits Correct

Why

Green signs with white lettering are guide signs: they tell you which way to go, name destinations, give distances to places ahead and mark upcoming exits. They do not warn of hazards or state legal requirements; warnings appear on yellow signs, rules such as speed limits on white regulatory signs, and work zone alerts on orange signs.
