A green sign with white lettering on the freeway most often gives you:
-
A.
Warnings about curves or hazards ahead.
-
B.
Exit information and direction to cities. Correct
-
C.
Route numbers for interstate highways.
-
D.
Reminders of the posted speed limit.
The answer is "Exit information and direction to cities."
Guide and information signs are green. They give exit information and direct you to roads and cities. Warnings are yellow. Interstate route numbers appear on a separate red, white, and blue shield. Speed limit signs are regulatory and black on white. Reading the color before the text tells you what kind of information the sign carries before you have to focus on the words.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. Warnings about curves or hazards ahead.
Warnings use yellow diamond signs, not green. Misreading: Confuses green guide signs with yellow warning signs that flag curves and hazards.
C. Route numbers for interstate highways.
Interstate route numbers appear on a separate red, white, and blue shield, not on a green guide sign. Misreading: Confuses green guide signs with the separate interstate route shield used for route numbers.
D. Reminders of the posted speed limit.
Speed limits are regulatory signs (black text on white), not green. Misreading: Confuses green guide signs with regulatory speed limit signs that are black on white.
