  2. What road pattern does this warning symbol identify?

    Correct answer: Three or more curves in succession

  3. Shown beneath a curve warning sign, what does this yellow plaque communicate?

    Correct answer: An advisory maximum of 35 mph for the warned condition

    A yellow advisory-speed plaque accompanies a warning. It differs from a white regulatory speed-limit sign and does not justify driving too fast for weather, traction or visibility.

  4. On which side should traffic pass the hazard marked by these diagonal stripes?

    Correct answer: To the right of the marker

    The stripes descend toward the side on which traffic should pass. This left-side hazard marker directs traffic to its right.

  5. What should you expect beyond this work-zone warning?

    Correct answer: A flagger controlling traffic ahead

    The symbol warns of a flagger ahead. Watch for and follow the flagger's directions; this advance sign is not itself a STOP paddle.

  6. What does the illustrated four-corner light pattern communicate when flashing on a work-zone arrow board?

    Correct answer: Caution, without a specified merge direction

    This is a caution display. Pennsylvania's manual associates it with work beside the travel lane; unlike an arrow, it does not specify a merge direction.

  7. What does this yellow panel mean for the highway lane beneath it?

    Correct answer: The lane becomes an exit ramp instead of continuing through the interchange

    If you stay in the lane marked EXIT ONLY, you must exit. Change to a through lane only when it is safe and permitted.

  8. What service does this blue sign identify?

    Correct answer: A hospital

    Blue service signs identify facilities available to motorists. The white H identifies a hospital.
