When driving, your focus should always be on the road and the conditions of the traffic around you (read: other cars). But road signs are an important part of avoiding dangers on the road, and of staying safe on long trips. Sure, we all think we know all of the road signs, but do we? I mean, do we really?
There are so many more signs on our roads than just ‘Stop’, ‘Yield to oncoming traffic’ and ‘Gawie was hier’ (my personal favourite), so with that in mind, why not test your own knowledge of some of these lesser spotted road signs?
