Warning signs to watch for
Yellow diamond warning signs alert you to hazards ahead so you can adjust your speed and position in time. Many appear on the G1 test.
Key facts to remember

- ◆ Symbols of children, pedestrians, cyclists or deer warn that they may be on or crossing the road.
- ◆ A slippery-road or 'bridge ices before road' sign warns of reduced traction in wet or cold weather.
- ◆ Merge, added-lane and lane-narrows signs warn of changes to the number of lanes ahead.
- ◆ An orange-red triangle on a vehicle marks a slow-moving vehicle travelling under 40 km/h.
