Warning signs prepare drivers for upcoming road conditions and hazards and are usually yellow with black markings. This sign alerts drivers to an upcoming traffic signal. They should be prepared to respond to a yellow light, red light, and/or cross traffic.

A serious traffic safety problem.

Safe if you have only had a few drinks.

Only dangerous to the driver who drinks.

Driving while impaired or intoxicated is a serious traffic safety problem. Safe driving is not possible when you drink alcohol or take other drugs. Driving under the influence is dangerous both to you and to others on the road.

Where drivers cannot see you for 500 feet in both directions.

Any of the above.

Do not make a U-turn at the crest of a hill, near a curve, or anyplace where you or other drivers cannot see 500 feet away. You should only make a U-turn when it is safe to do so.

6. Unless otherwise posted, the speed limit in school zones is:

10 mph.

20 mph.

30 mph.

50 mph.

Unless posted otherwise, your speed is not reasonable and proper if you drive at speeds faster than 20 mph in a school zone. Drivers should exercise caution when driving in an area with an increased likelihood of children or other pedestrians entering traffic.
