This sign means?
- Narrow bridge ahead ✓
- Railway crossing
- Pavement ends
- Sharp bend in the road
Answer: A. Narrow bridge ahead
The sign means a narrow bridge is ahead.
Why this is the answer
The handbook's list of common warning signs includes one that warns of a narrow bridge ahead. That is the meaning you match to this picture. Because it is a warning sign, it tells you to be alert to a bridge that is narrow as you approach it, so you can adjust your speed and lane position before you reach it rather than after. The other meanings in the options belong to separate warning signs, not this one.
Why the other answers are wrong
- B. Railway crossing — A railway crossing is a different hazard, and the handbook treats railway crossings as places to avoid turning around near, not as the meaning of this warning sign.
- C. Pavement ends — A paved surface ending is its own warning sign in the handbook, listed separately from the narrow bridge warning.
- D. Sharp bend in the road — A sharp bend or turn in the road is also listed as a separate warning sign, often paired with chevron signs around the curve.
Remember it
Think of the bridge first: if the warning is about a bridge, the narrow bridge meaning is the one to pick.
