One of the most important aspects for all road users is to understand each and every traffic sign on the road.

Traffic Signs

 

There are three types of traffic signs– Mandatory, Cautionary and Informatory.

1. Mandatory Road signs: These are the ones that give order regarding do's and don’ts and are to be followed strictly. These are generally circular in shape.

The purpose of mandatory traffic signboards is the smooth functioning of traffic on the road.

Though these things are not inherent, accidents could occur if one doesn’t slow down their vehicle.
