Warning signs

Two-way traffic ahead

What it means

Ahead, traffic travels in both directions on the same road. Keep to the right.

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 arrow pointing down on the left and one pointing up on the right, split by a broken line.

Where you will see it

Where a one-way road or a divided section becomes a road with traffic in both directions.

What to do when you see it

  1. 1.Keep to the right: vehicles will soon be coming towards you in the next lane.
  2. 2.Pass only where the markings allow it and you can see far enough ahead.

On the knowledge test

Opposing arrows on a yellow diamond warn of traffic in both directions ahead; the same idea on a white rectangle is a regulatory sign telling you to keep right unless passing.
