Section 21: Regulatory traffic signs

This section includes the signs that show a road regulation is in place. These must be obeyed.

Regulatory signs show the course a driver must follow and an action they are required to take or forbidden to take. They are usually circular and have a red border and black symbols or letters on a white background. Mandatory regulatory signs that indicate the direction traffic must take at junctions are blue and white.
