According to the manual, what do guide signs help you find along the highway?
-
A.
Speed limits and school zone locations
-
B.
Sharp curves and slippery pavement
-
C.
Construction zones and detour routes
-
D.
Hospitals, service stations, restaurants and motels Correct
The answer is "Hospitals, service stations, restaurants and motels"
In addition to intersecting roads and points of interest, the manual specifically lists everyday driver stops that guide signs point you to: hospitals, service stations, restaurants, and motels. B blurs the roles of warning signs and guide signs, treating curve and slippery-pavement warnings as if they belonged in the same category as motel and restaurant guidance.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. Speed limits and school zone locations
Speed limits and school zones are posted on regulatory and warning signs, not guide signs. This answer lumps every roadside message into the guide-sign category.
B. Sharp curves and slippery pavement
Sharp curves and slippery pavement are warning-sign topics, not guide-sign topics. This answer blurs the roles of warning signs and guide signs.
C. Construction zones and detour routes
Work-zone messages appear on orange construction signs, not the guide signs described here. This answer substitutes orange work-zone messaging for the green guide-sign category.
