Road sign "Pedestrian path" - characteristic features. Traffic signs for children with explanations

These signs warn drivers that they are approaching dangerous places on the road.

Warning signs are triangular in shape, with a white background and a red border.

Among the warning signs often found in cities is the “Pedestrian crossing” sign.

This sign is intended for drivers: it warns them of what is ahead crosswalk. Seeing such a road sign, the driver becomes very attentive and prepares to slow down - after all, there may be pedestrians ahead. But pedestrians must remember: it is impossible to cross the street in the place where the sign "Pedestrian crossing" is installed!

This sign is called "Children". Chances are you've seen it many times. It is installed near schools, kindergartens, country holiday camps, that is, in those places where children can suddenly get out or run out onto the road. Of course, there should be no children on the road! But they can appear there, and the driver should be warned about this. So they put this sign on the roads. Sometimes schoolchildren believe that this sign, like the sign "Pedestrian crossing", allows you to cross the road in this place. After all, it depicts children running across the road! No, this sign is also for drivers. So remember: this sign does not allow you to cross the road at all in the place where it is installed.

On the sign "Road works" depicted a man with a shovel in his hands. This sign warns drivers that construction or repair work on the roadway, sidewalk or roadside; therefore, there may be dug pits, heaps of sand, various mechanisms and machines. All this can be very dangerous for both drivers and pedestrians. Especially in the dark. After all, the places where such work is carried out are not always fenced and lit.

Sign "Railway crossing with a barrier" warns drivers about the intersection of the carriageway with the railway tracks. At the crossing in front of which this sign is installed, during the movement of the train, the carriageway of the road is closed with a barrier - a special crossbar, which, lowering and rising, closes and opens the road through the railway crossing. For better visibility, the barrier is painted with white and red stripes. Opens and closes the barrier or automatic device or a duty officer who is at the crossing both at night and during the day. This sign warns drivers that when a train approaches, the crossing will be closed with a barrier.

On the sign " Railway crossing without a barrier» depicted a steam locomotive. This sign warns the driver: “Be careful! ahead railways not equipped with a barrier!”. Both drivers and pedestrians must decide on their own whether it is possible or not to cross or cross the railway tracks in this place. Approaching such a sign, listen carefully and look both to the right and to the left - if the train is approaching. If you are sure that there is no train, you can cross the railway tracks.

The next three signs warn drivers that there are dangerous curves on the road. If the line shown on the sign "Dangerous turn", turns right, which means that a dangerous turn of the road goes in this direction. If the line turns left, then the turn goes left.

Double curved line on the sign "Dangerous Turns" warns drivers that the road ahead is making several sharp, dangerous turns. So, you need to be very careful.

The following three signs warn drivers of the dangers that may await them on the road. good roads. Each of these signs is placed in front of a dangerous section of the road.

Sign "Rough road" warns drivers that there are sections of the road ahead that have bumps, potholes, bumps.

Sign "Slippery road" installed in places where the roads are very slippery. AT good weather this section of the road is not dangerous. But during rain or snowfall, as well as autumn leaf fall or winter ice, the road in this place can become very slippery.

Pedestrians also need to be aware of these signs. Indeed, due to the poor condition of the road, the car can skid, it will drive off the road to the side of the road or drive onto the sidewalk. But there may be pedestrians.

Sign "Gravel Ejection" warns drivers and pedestrians about poor quality sections of the road. Gravel is a small rounded pebbles. Sometimes they cover roads instead of asphalt or are used in road repairs. Gravel, like other small stones, is dangerous for both drivers and pedestrians. It can fly out from under the wheels of moving cars and get into nearby pedestrians or into the windows of cars. This danger is warned by the sign "Emission of gravel".

There are other warning signs, such as "Narrowing Road", "Steep Descent", "Cattle Drive", "Wild Animals", "Crossing Tramway". But it is impossible to foresee all the dangers that may arise on the road. Therefore, in cases where for a given hazard it is difficult to select suitable sign put up a warning sign "Other dangers".

Among the warning signs, there are two signs that are very important for St. Petersburg - the city of numerous embankments and bridges. These are the signs "Departure to the embankment" and "drawbridge". Many streets of St. Petersburg overlook the embankments of its rivers and canals. An inexperienced driver, especially if he rides on high speed or at night, may lose control and fall into the water. This is what the sign warns about. Unfortunately, every year cars and trucks turn up in the Neva, Fontanka, and canals of St. Petersburg.

Sign "Drawbridge" warns both drivers and pedestrians that there is a bridge ahead that is being drawn. There are many such bridges in St. Petersburg. They are usually bred at night in order to let the ships going along the Neva pass. Unruly drivers (and sometimes pedestrians) often try to run over or cross such a bridge when it is already being drawn. In order to warn such violators, the “drawbridge” sign is installed.

"Crosswalk" is an information sign.

He points to the place of the ground crossing of the carriageway of the street. Such a sign is installed near the special markings for pedestrians - "zebras".

Pay attention to the child that there is another similar sign, but triangular. It is a warning (triangular) sign, which is also called "Crosswalk". It does not designate a crossing point for pedestrians, but warns the driver that a crossing is approaching.

"Underground pedestrian crossing" is an information sign. This sign indicates the location of the underpass of the carriageway of the street. Installed near the entrance to the transition.

If you have an underground passage on your way to kindergarten or school, be sure to show it to your child.


"Tram stop"- it is also an informational sign. He informs and points out to us that this place stops public transport.

Parents should explain to the child that this road sign, like the previous one, is important for both pedestrians and drivers.

The pedestrian on it will find out where the stop is, and the driver will be attentive, because there may be people (and especially children) at the stops.

When talking about this sign, be sure to repeat to the child how the kids should behave at the bus stop (you can’t run, jump out on carriageway).


"Bus stop"- it is also an informational sign. He informs and points out to us that the bus stops at this place.
This sign is installed close to the landing area - the place of waiting for transport for passengers.


« Bicycle lane» is a prescriptive sign. Permits movement only on bicycles and mopeds. Other modes of transport are not allowed to enter it. Pedestrians can also move along the cycle path if there is no sidewalk or footpath.

If your child already knows how to ride a bike, then you should explain to him that he can ride his bike only in the courtyard of the house. And the one where there is such a sign.

The bike paths are designed specifically for cyclists. Perhaps your city has such areas for cycling.


« Footpath» - prescriptive sign. Sometimes on the streets they arrange such a special path, intended only for pedestrians.

On this path, you must follow general rules behavior for pedestrians: follow right side; do not interfere with other pedestrians.

Children should be explained that it is impossible to arrange games on the footpath, sledding. Cycling on the footpath is also prohibited.


"No entry" is a prohibition sign. All prohibition signs are red.

This sign prohibits the entry of any vehicles, including bicycles, on the section of the road in front of which it is installed.

It does not apply only to public transport, the routes of which pass through this section. The cyclist, having seen this sign, must get off the bike and drive it along the sidewalk, observing the rules for the movement of pedestrians.

Remind your child that if he carries his own bike and does not ride it, then he is considered a pedestrian.


"Bicycles are not allowed"- another prohibition sign.
This sign prohibits the movement of bicycles and mopeds. It is installed in places where it can be dangerous to ride a bicycle.

Usually this sign is placed on streets with a lot of traffic.

It should be remembered that cycling is prohibited on motorways, even if there is no prohibition sign.

I believe that every child should know this sign and the rules related to cycling, because children love to ride so much and, if possible, they will want to drive along the road.


"Children"- warning sign.

This sign warns the driver about possible appearance children on the road. It is installed near children's institution e.g. schools, health camp, playground.

But parents should warn the child that this sign does not mean a place for children to cross the road! Therefore, a pedestrian child must cross the street in a place where pedestrian crossing is allowed and there is a corresponding sign.


"No Pedestrians"- prohibition sign.

This sign prohibits the movement of pedestrians. It is installed in places where walking can be dangerous.

This sign is often used to temporarily restrict the movement of pedestrians, for example, during the road works or repair of facades of houses.

What do you need road signs? Road signs perform the same service as traffic lights, street and road marking lines. They regulate the flow of cars and people, facilitate the work of drivers, help pedestrians to correctly orient themselves in difficult traffic conditions.


Where and how are road signs installed? The signs are located along the entire road path so that they are always to the right of the driver so that he can see them without turning his head. Signs are fixed on special racks, on poles or suspended above the roadway.

In the Russian Federation, there are now more and more cars every year. At the same time, it is becoming increasingly difficult for pedestrians to move around the city, since negligent motorists often do not seek to use knowledge of road signs.

According to the Rules of the Road with amendments and additions, a pedestrian is a full participant in the road traffic, which means that he is simply obliged to follow the rules of behavior on the road. Knowledge of road signs can save health, and sometimes life.

These small images, constantly flashing on the roads, should become a empty space but faithful helpers along the way. Their thorough knowledge, of course, will help you feel more confident on the road and not get into ridiculous situations.

One of the main signs that every pedestrian of any age should know is the pedestrian crossing sign. This sign informs that it is possible to cross the road next to it. It is located near a special marking, commonly referred to as a "zebra". This sign is square for pedestrians only, but the triangular shape of the same road sign is for motorists only.

The next sign, relevant for pedestrians of any age, will be the Underpass. It is installed at the entrance to the underground pedestrian crossing. Do not cross the roadway if this road sign is nearby.

It is quite useful to learn the signs indicating the places where the bus or tram stops. Please note that these signs are installed as close as possible to the waiting area for vehicles. If you have children, be sure to tell them about the rules of conduct while waiting for a bus or tram. The same sign is important for the driver, since his attention is sharpened when approaching a stop with people.

For every pedestrian, and especially those living in a metropolis, the road signs "Pedestrian path" and "Bicycle path" will be useful. It is worth explaining to children that the pedestrian path is intended exclusively for pedestrians, but cyclists and moped drivers can move along the bicycle path, but pedestrians can also walk along it. On these paths, you need to walk, keeping to the right side, and you should definitely not interfere with other road users.

For each pedestrian in the Rules of the Road there are a number of prohibition signs. The sign "Entry is prohibited" or simply a brick means that priority in traffic will be given to pedestrians. Remember that if you are riding a bicycle, then there is no way under the sign, but if you are driving it in your hands, then the way will be free.

Another sign important for pedestrians will be a sign that prohibits the movement of pedestrians.

Knowing the road signs and traffic rules for pedestrians will help you feel more confident on the road and not create emergency situations.
