About The seven categories of traffic signs (appendix 1): which statement is WRONG?
- Command signs (round, blue) are a separate category from category C (round, red border).
- ✓ A yellow diamond-shaped sign belongs to category A (speed).
- B1 (priority road) has its own yellow diamond shape, not a triangle.
- F1 is listed literally under 'Other commands and prohibitions', not under chapter C 'Closure'.
Correct answer: A yellow diamond-shaped sign belongs to category A (speed).
Explanation
Category A (speed) consists of round signs (A1, A2...); the yellow diamond shape is unique to category B (priority, sign B1)
Why learners get this wrong
- Command signs (round, blue) are a separate category from category C (round, red border). Round only tells you 'command or prohibition', not which of the two
- B1 (priority road) has its own yellow diamond shape, not a triangle. The triangle with a red border is the appearance of category J (warning)
- F1 is listed literally under 'Other commands and prohibitions', not under chapter C 'Closure'. Appearance does not determine the classification
