Finland Road Sign 231 (1974-1985) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features the iconic road sign 231 from Finland, as it appeared between 1974 and 1985. The design is a direct representation of a crucial road safety symbol used during that era.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The central element of the design is the distinct, upside-down triangle shape. This shape is the core identifier of the "Give Way" or "Väistämisvelvollisuus risteyksessä" sign. Inside the triangle, the artwork is clean and simple. The predominant color palette typically included a white background for the triangle, with a bold red border.
Meaning and Symbolism
The sign's purpose is immediately apparent: it serves as a visual warning and instruction to drivers. The "Give Way" sign indicates that the vehicle displaying the sign must yield the right of way to traffic on the intersecting road. The inverted triangle shape, the bold red border, and the straightforward meaning combine to convey the importance of this road rule, promoting safe driving practices at intersections.
