Be Prepared To Stop

Traffic ahead may stop without warning; reduce speed and be ready to brake.

Used in advance of a work zone, flagger station, signal, or queue where vehicles routinely come to a halt. Lower your speed, increase your following distance, and be ready to brake firmly because the back of a stopped line of traffic may appear suddenly.
