A yellow diamond sign shows a leaping deer. What does it warn you about?
-
A.
Wooded areas where any hunted animal may cross
-
B.
Areas where deer frequently cross and crashes have occurred Correct
-
C.
Farms where livestock may wander onto the road
-
D.
Wildlife preserves that prohibit driving through
The answer is "Areas where deer frequently cross and crashes have occurred"
The manual says this sign is posted where deer frequently cross and crashes with deer have occurred. Choice A is written for drivers who read the leaping figure as a generic wildlife-and-hunting symbol and stretch it to any hunted animal, but the manual describes it narrowly as a deer-crossing warning tied to actual crash history on that stretch of road.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. Wooded areas where any hunted animal may cross
The manual ties this sign specifically to deer and to crash history on the road, not to hunting seasons or game in general. This answer reads the leaping figure as a generic wildlife-and-hunting warning rather than the deer-specific, crash-history marker the manual names.
C. Farms where livestock may wander onto the road
The manual describes a deer-crash warning, not a notice about livestock straying from farms onto the road. This answer substitutes the cow-crossing symbol seen on some rural routes for the leaping-deer figure the manual specifies.
D. Wildlife preserves that prohibit driving through
The sign marks a crash-risk stretch of road, not the boundary of a preserve that blocks driving. This answer treats any wildlife symbol as a land-use rule about the surrounding property instead of a driving hazard on the road.
