This sign indicates that there is an intersection with a side road ahead.

Collisions are more likely to happen when one driver moves faster or slower than the other vehicles on the road. Driving faster than other traffic increases your chance of being involved in a collision. Driving more slowly than other traffic is also dangerous because it can increase the risk of a rear-end collision with your vehicle or cause other drivers to swerve to avoid hitting you.

On cold, wet days, shaded spots on a roadway can become icy. Shaded areas often freeze before, and thaw out after, the rest of a road.

To avoid the need for last-minute braking or turning, consistently watch the road far ahead of your vehicle. By looking ahead and being ready to stop or change lanes if needed, you can drive more safely, save fuel, and help keep traffic moving at a steady pace.

If you are already within an intersection when the traffic light turns yellow, you should clear the intersection as quickly as possible.

This sign is placed on roads near schools to warn drivers to slow down, drive with caution, and watch for children.

If your vehicle is hit from the rear while you are in forward motion, your body will be thrown backward.

Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel and be ready to apply your brakes to avoid being pushed into another vehicle.
