Do Not Cross Double White Line

What more can I say? Don't do it!

Protected Left on Green Arrow

This sign lets you know that when you see the green arrow, you have a protected left. That means oncoming traffic should stop for you (but still be careful! you never know when someone will decide to do something weird!).

Emergency Stopping Only

Yup, this sign means only stop for an emergency. I know you can read, Aaliyah, but we gotta review all of these. An emergency could be a mechanical breakdown, tire trouble, running out of fuel, or anything else that keeps you from being able to safely drive (needing to change the music, however, doesn't qualify).

Left Lane for Passing Only

That left lane? That's for passing only. Don't make me tap the sign.

Center Lane Left Turn Only

That center lane? That's only for turning left, NOT for passing. Don't be playing center lane chicken!

Left Turn Signal

Just a friendly notice that there will be a green signal when you can make a left turn. Be patient! It'll be your turn soon.

Right Lane Must Turn Right

If you're in the right lane and you see this sign, you better be turning right! If not, smash that turn signal and get outta there!

HOV Lane

This sign is used to indicate that a lane is only for high-occupancy vehicles during certain times. That means two or more people in one car. It's sometimes called the carpool lane. Check the times on the sign — usually, these lanes are only carpool lanes during certain busy times of the day. Vehicles not used for carpools will be subject to fines if they use this lane.
