Teavitusmärgid

Teavitusmärgid, often translated as advisory signs or information signs, are a type of traffic sign intended to provide information or guidance to drivers rather than to prohibit or mandate specific actions. Unlike regulatory signs (like speed limits or stop signs) or warning signs (which indicate potential hazards), teavitusmärgid aim to inform about upcoming conditions, destinations, or services.

These signs can serve various purposes. They might indicate the presence of facilities such as rest areas, gas stations, restaurants, or hospitals. They can also provide information about upcoming road features like lane drops, changes in road alignment, or the beginning or end of specific zones. In some cases, teavitusmärgid are used to denote scenic routes or historical points of interest. Their primary function is to enhance driver awareness and facilitate smoother navigation by offering advance notice of what lies ahead.

The design and placement of teavitusmärgid are standardized to ensure clarity and legibility. They typically feature clear pictograms or text on a recognizable background color, often blue or green depending on the type of information conveyed and regional regulations. The goal is to be easily understood at a glance, allowing drivers to make informed decisions without compromising safety.
