You see the Two-Way Traffic Ahead warning sign. What does it specifically tell you?
-
A.
A two-way left turn lane begins ahead
-
B.
Cross-traffic may enter the road from a side road
-
C.
A divided highway with separated lanes begins ahead
-
D.
A one-way road is ending, and you will face oncoming traffic ahead Correct
The answer is "A one-way road is ending, and you will face oncoming traffic ahead"
The Two-Way Traffic Ahead sign appears where a one-way road ends and joins a two-way road, meaning you will face oncoming traffic ahead. Its job is to warn drivers leaving a one-way segment that the directional flow is changing, not to announce two-way traffic in general. Answer C swaps in the neighboring Divided Highway Begins warning, blurring two adjacent yellow figures about lane configuration into a single message.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. A two-way left turn lane begins ahead
A two-way left turn lane is signed with regulatory, not warning, signs. This answer confuses a yellow warning sign with the white regulatory Center Lane Turn Only sign for a two-way left turn lane.
B. Cross-traffic may enter the road from a side road
Cross-traffic from a side road is shown by the Side Road or Crossroad sign. This answer confuses the Two-Way Traffic Ahead sign with the Crossroad or Side Road warning signs that flag entering cross-traffic.
C. A divided highway with separated lanes begins ahead
A divided highway beginning is shown by the Divided Highway Begins sign. This answer confuses the Two-Way Traffic Ahead sign with the separate Divided Highway Begins or Ends warning sign.
