Theory test traffic signals

Traffic signals ahead

Crossroads

T junction

Side roads

Staggered iunction

Traffic merges from the left

Roundabout

Bend to right (left if reversed)

Double bend first to the left

Road narrows on both sides

Road narrows on right (left if symbol reversed)

End of dual carriageway

Two way traffic

Two way traffic on route crossing ahead

Worded warning. Ford may be varied to “flood” “gate” “gates” or no smoking

Steep hill downwards

Steep hill upwards (20% is equivalent to 1.5)

Soft verges for distance shown

Hump bridge

Uneven road

Slippery roads

Side winds

Risk of falling or fallen rocks

Traffic queues likely ahead

Slow moving vehicles for distance shown

Risk of ice ice may be varied to snowdrifts

Tunnel

Other danger the plate indicates the nature of the hazard

Zebra crossing

Frail pedestrians likely to cross

Children going to or from school

Lights warning of children likely to be crossing the road on their way to or from school (used with School sign)

Pedestrians likely to be crossing a high speed road where there is no

Accompanied horses or ponies likely to be in or crossing the road

Wild animals

Agricultural vehicles

The stop sign and road markings: yiu must stop before crossing the transverse line on the road and ensure the way is clear before entering the major road

The give way sign and road markings you must give way to traffic on the major road (the upright sign or both the sign and the triangle on the road might not be used at junctions where there is relatively little traffic)

No entry for vehicular traffic including pedal cycles (usually indicates the end of a one way road where all traffic is travelling in the other direction)

No vehicles except pedal cycles being pushed by hand

No motor vehicles

No motor vehicles except solo motorcycles

No solo motorcycles

No pedestrians

No goods vehicles over maximum gross weight shown in tonnes

No vehicles over maximum width shown (width shown in metric and imperial units)

No vehicles over maximum width shown (width shown in imperial units)

No overtaking

Where a road or bridge is very narrow priority must be given to traffic from the other direction (there will usually be a give way line indicating where to wait)

No u turn

No right turn

Vehicles must not go beyond the sign where displayed by a school crossing patrol

Proceed in direction indicated by the arrow

Vehicles may pass either side to reach the same direction

Keep left (right if symbol reversed)

Mini roundabout (give way to traffic from the immediate right)

One way traffic

The maximum speed in miles per hour at which traffic may travel if it is safe to do so

The National speed limit for the type of road and class of traffic applies

Road marking used in conjunction with upright sign to indicate the speed limit

End of 20 mph zone and start of 30 mph speed limit

End of road works and any temporary speed limit through those works (may be supplemented by a sign indicating the permanent speed limit beyond the road works

Length of road where 2 cameras are used to measure the average speed of a vehicle between two points

Reminder that enforcement cameras in use (may be supplemented by a speed limit sign)

Maximum speed advised in miles per hour at a bend (the plate may be used with warning signs)

Minimum speed permitted in miles per hour unless it is impracticable or unsafe to comply

End of minimum speed requirement

Level crossing with a gate or barrier

Plays used with level crossing warning signs advance warning of light signals at a level crossing with or without a gate or barrier
