Warning signs

Fire truck entrance

What it means

A fire hall entrance is ahead. Be ready for a fire truck pulling out with its lights flashing.

Yellow diamonds (and five-sided yellow-green school signs) warn of hazards ahead.

Summarised from ICBC’s Learn to Drive Smart. Read the original: Signs signals and road markings ↗

How to recognise it

A yellow diamond with a black fire truck with a red light flashing on top.

Where you will see it

On the street outside a fire hall.

What to do when you see it

  1. 1.Watch the fire hall driveway and be ready to stop for a fire truck pulling out.
  2. 2.If one comes out with lights and siren, it has the right-of-way: pull to the right and stop, but not in an intersection.
  3. 3.Once it has passed, keep watching and listening: other emergency vehicles may follow.

On the knowledge test

The sign itself is a warning; the tested rule is that emergency vehicles with flashing lights and sirens always have the right-of-way.
