This sign means?
- Zoo ahead
- Scenic view ahead
- Deer regularly cross this road ✓
- Wildlife preservation center ahead
Answer: C. Deer regularly cross this road
The sign means deer regularly cross this road, so be alert for animals.
Why this is the answer
The handbook lists this among common warning signs and says it warns that deer commonly cross that stretch and tells you to watch for animals. It also explains that animal crossing signs warn drivers about large animals such as deer crossing the road, and that you should be cautious when you see them. That fits a road hazard warning, not a place to visit or a scenic viewpoint. The message is to expect deer on or near the roadway as you drive.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A. Zoo ahead — Zoo ahead is wrong because the passages describe a warning about animals crossing the road, not a sign pointing to a zoo.
- B. Scenic view ahead — Scenic view ahead is wrong because nothing in the passages connects this warning to a viewpoint or scenery.
- D. Wildlife preservation center ahead — Wildlife preservation center ahead is wrong because the sign warns of deer crossing the road, not a facility for preserving wildlife.
Remember it
Think 'deer cross here' and watch the shoulders, not for a tourist stop.
