MUTCD-CA NEV-R5 (California) Road Sign T-Shirt - Design Description
This t-shirt features the design of the MUTCD-CA NEV-R5 road sign, as specified for use in the state of California. The design directly replicates the visual elements of this important traffic control device.
Visual Components and Meaning
The central element of the design is the prohibition symbol – a red circle with a slash through it. Within the circle, or below it depending on the exact specification drawing, the words "NO NEVs" or “NEVs PROHIBITED” are clearly and boldly displayed in a sans-serif typeface, ensuring maximum visibility and legibility.
The color scheme adheres to the standard conventions for regulatory signs in the MUTCD and the California supplement, employing a white background, red circle and slash, and black lettering. The visual emphasis is on the prohibition, immediately communicating the restriction to viewers.
Significance
The design represents the regulatory message: "Neighborhood Electric Vehicles Prohibited" or "No NEVs Allowed." This prohibition is used on roadways where the operation of NEVs is not permitted. The sign's presence on the shirt visually signifies awareness of and adherence to traffic regulations, and promotes road safety.
The overall design clearly and directly communicates the intended meaning. This is a design that is both functional and important, while keeping its visual presentation simple and effective.
