DMV Permit · Warning Signs

A yellow (or fluorescent yellow-green) sign showing two people walking, or a figure in a crosswalk, warns of:

Correct answer

A pedestrian crossing or area where people may be crossing the road

  1. A A playground only
  2. B A pedestrian crossing or area where people may be crossing the road
  3. C A bus stop
  4. D A no-parking zone

Why this is the answer

A warning sign showing pedestrians — often two figures walking, sometimes on a fluorescent yellow-green background for higher visibility — alerts drivers to a pedestrian crossing or an area where people are likely to be crossing the road, such as near schools, parks, or crosswalks. Drivers should slow down, watch carefully for people, and be prepared to stop and yield to pedestrians. The bright yellow-green color is increasingly used for pedestrian, bicycle, and school warning signs because it stands out. Recognizing pedestrian-warning signs and yielding to people on foot is important for safety and is tested on the permit exam.
