A priority sign is a traffic sign that indicates the order in which vehicles shall pass intersection points. Vehicles often come into conflict with other vehicles and pedestrians because their intended courses of travel intersect, and thus interfere with each other's routes. The general principle that establishes who has the right to go first is called 'right of way' or 'priority'. It establishes who has the right to use the conflicting part of the road and who has to wait until the other does so. The vehicle that does not need to wait is said to 'have the right of way' or to 'have priority.'

This traffic sign indicates a warning for an uncontrolled crossroad. It alerts drivers that a crossroad without traffic signals or priority signs is ahead. Drivers should slow down and be alert for traffic from side roads that may not stop. Yield according to local right-of-way rules (e.g., in many European countries, give way to the right). Typical Locations: Rural areas and roads where no clear priority is assigned.

This traffic sign indicates you have to give way. It alerts drivers to yield the right of way to other road users. Drivers must slow down and yield to traffic on the intersecting road. Stop if necessary and proceed only when the way is clear. Common at: minor roads joining major roads, roundabouts and merging lanes.

This traffic sign indicates a warning for an uncontrolled crossroad with a road from the left. It alerts drivers to an upcoming intersection where a side road joins from the left, and no priority rules are explicitly marked (i.e., it's an uncontrolled junction).

This traffic sign indicates a warning for an uncontrolled crossroad with a sharp road from the left. It alerts that a sharp or angled side road joins your road from the left, and no priority is regulated — it's an uncontrolled intersection. It requires increased caution, as the angle may limit visibility.

This traffic sign indicates a warning for an uncontrolled crossroad with a road from the right. It alerts drivers that a side road joining from the right at an uncontrolled intersection, meaning there are no traffic lights or priority signs. Slow down and proceed carefully, especially when visibility is limited.

This traffic sign indicates a warning for an uncontrolled crossroad with a sharp road from the right. It alerts drivers that a sharply angled side road joining from the right, at an uncontrolled intersection — meaning there are no traffic signs or signals determining priority. Drivers should slow down and be cautious, especially due to limited visibility from the sharp angle.

This traffic sign indicates a warning for a roundabout. It alerts that a roundabout (traffic circle) is ahead. Drivers should slow down and prepare to yield to traffic already in the roundabout.

This traffic sign indicates a warning for a crossroad where the roads are not opposite to each other. It alerts drivers of an asymmetrical intersection, where side roads join the main road but do not align directly opposite each other. Drivers should slow down, observe carefully, and be prepared for vehicles entering or exiting from unexpected angles. Common Locations: Staggered junctions or T-intersections close together but not aligned.

This traffic sign indicates a warning for a crossroad where you have to stop and give way. It alerts that you are approaching a controlled intersection where you must stop and yield the right of way to other road users. Drivers must come to a complete stop and give way to all traffic on the priority road.

This traffic sign indicates a warning for an uncontrolled T-crossroad. It alerts that you are approaching a T-junction where no traffic signs or signals regulate priority — making it an uncontrolled intersection.

This traffic sign indicates a road narrowing where you have to give way to oncoming drivers. It marks a road narrowing where you must yield to oncoming traffic. It's typically used where the road becomes too narrow for two vehicles to pass at the same time.

This traffic sign indicates a mandatory direction of the roundabout. You are required to enter and drive around the roundabout in the indicated direction. Turning left, right, or going straight without following the roundabout is prohibited.

This traffic sign indicates the begin of a priority road. The beginning of a priority road indicates the start of a road where vehicles have priority over traffic coming from intersecting roads. You do not have to yield to other vehicles at junctions along this road. Remain alert for the end of priority road sign, which cancels this right of way.
