Guide signs are ____ signs that provide directional and mileage information to drivers.
- Yellow
- Red
- Green ✓
- White
Answer: C. Green
Guide signs are green signs that provide directional and mileage information to drivers.
Why this is the answer
The handbook's standard colors table ties green to direction guidance, and its shapes table says horizontal rectangles are generally guide signs. That matches the sign described in the question, which gives directional and mileage information. Yellow is listed for general warning or caution, red for stop, yield, or posted actions, and white for regulation, so those colors do not match the guide-sign role.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A. Yellow — Yellow is listed for general warning or caution, not for direction guidance.
- B. Red — Red is used for stop, yield, or doing what the sign posts, not for directional information.
- D. White — White is listed for regulation, not for guiding drivers with directions and mileage.
Remember it
Green for guidance: think of green signs telling you where you may go.
