This t-shirt showcases the design of the MUTCD W1-4cL traffic sign, a crucial warning indicator in the United States. The design is instantly recognizable, employing the standard format used for warning signs.
Visual Elements & Meaning
The primary element of the design is a symbolic arrow graphic, representing the roadway's geometry. The arrow depicts a three-lane configuration, indicated by the three parallel lines within the symbol, which shift in a reverse curve. The "L" in the sign's code (W1-4cL) signifies that the curve's predominant or first shift is to the left.
The background color is yellow with black symbol and lettering for standard use on typical roads, but it may also be orange with black symbol and lettering for temporary work zones.
Symbolism & Interpretation
The design serves as a visual alert, warning drivers about an upcoming road alignment. It signifies that the road ahead will curve first to the left and then to the right. The inclusion of three parallel lines within the arrow signifies that the road consists of three lanes in the direction of travel, or a three-lane configuration.
The sign encourages drivers to be prepared for the upcoming change in direction, enabling them to safely navigate the complex geometry of the roadway, anticipate lane positioning, potential lane changes, and navigate safely.
