Regulatory signs tell you

• A. They warn of hazards
• B. They tell you what you must do or not do
• C. They indicate distances to exits
• D. They show destinations

Answer: (B)

Regulatory signs tell you what you must do or not do. They put the legal requirements of driving into plain, visible commands or restrictions, such as speed limits, stopping or yielding rules, or prohibitions like no entry or no turns. Because these signs reflect traffic laws, you’re expected to follow them at all times, and ignoring them can lead to fines or license points. They’re distinct from warning signs, which alert you to hazards ahead (usually yellow), and from guide signs, which point you toward destinations or show distances. So regulatory signs are all about actions you must take or avoid.
