Practice questions with this sign

What does this sign mean?

  1. A gentle curve to the right ahead (Correct answer)
  2. A side road joins from the right ahead
  3. Right turns only from this lane
  4. A sharp right-angle turn ahead

Explanation: A curved arrow warns of a slight bend in the road. A right-angle arrow would warn of a sharp turn instead.

Which best describes the road ahead when you see this sign?

  1. It ends, and you must turn right
  2. It bends gradually to the right (Correct answer)
  3. It splits into two one-way roads
  4. It turns at a right angle to the right

Explanation: This is the curve sign: the bend is gradual. Still slow down before the curve, not in it.

You see this sign on a wet night. When should you slow down?

  1. In the middle of the curve, once you see the bend
  2. After the curve, when the road is straight again
  3. Before the curve, while you are still going straight (Correct answer)
  4. Only if another vehicle is in the curve

Explanation: Brake before the curve, not in it. Hard braking while turning on a wet road can make the vehicle skid.
