The higher the percentage, the steeper the grade. The pictogram shows a truck, as drivers of heavy vehicles must take special precautions. Motorists must also be vigilant, especially if the grade includes a bend or the road surface is slippery.

Non-reflective road sign displays are useless 50 percent of the time. Statistics show just how dangerous driving at high speeds during night or cloudy conditions can be when the visibility of any road signage is not up to the reflectivity standards set by the MUTCD. That’s why nearly all municipalities require highly visible and reflective advisory speed limit signage that can be seen in the dark. STOPSignsAndMore.com manufactures highly visible, durable signs for this use, according to the regulations set forth by local and federal governments. All of our speed limit road signage that we produce adheres to MUTCD compliant R2-1 standards.

Even though the United States led the way in car manufacturing, the Brits invented speed limits and their concomitant signs. Automobiles started crowding the roads in the early 1860s. Quickly, authorities deemed it necessary to regulate speed, so they set the limit to 10 miles per hour! The original signs were rudimentary and could only be seen in the best conditions, but they improved over time. In 2004, the World Health Organization recommended road speed regulations, citing them as vital in lowering automobile casualties. Today, in the United States, MUTCD compliant R2-1 MPH speed limit signs are standard.

Sadly, over 200,000 child deaths are due to road accidents each year. One way to mitigate tragedy is by posting slow down warning signs or caution children at play road signs.

Using our reflective slow down warning signage is a great way to catch any motorist’s attention.
