“Okay, well this sign is nothing specific. It’s just an exclamation mark. Hey, golly, there’s something ahead. It’s a warning sign.
We don’t really know what it is, but there’s something to watch out for. So, you need to check your mirrors, see what’s behind. You might well have to slow down. You might well have to change direction. At this point in time, it’s not telling you what it is.
It might be a concealed entrance. It might be a dip in the road. There might be something odd about the next few hundred metres of road that you need to watch out for.
In some signs, like this one, there is a plate underneath it and it just gives you an explanation. It doesn’t warrant a road sign that like what we’ve seen already with a specific explanation and a specific image on it. This is a general be careful. It’s a bit like a flashing orange light, I suppose.”
