Keep to the side indicated by the arrow.

No left turn.

Flagger ahead.

Two-way left turn.

Turn right or go through.

Regulation signs regulate traffic speed and movement, displaying rules which drivers must obey. This regulation sign means that left turns are prohibited.

Check your rearview mirror for cars tailgating.

Move when the vehicle ahead of you moves.

Look right first, then left, then right again.

Look left first, then right, then left again.

When stopped at an intersection, you should first look to your left, as vehicles coming from the left are closer to you than vehicles coming from the right.

Stop only if other cars are approaching.

Whenever the driver waves at you.
