MUTCD-PR R9-3b(I) Road Sign T-Shirt Design
This t-shirt design features a faithful representation of the MUTCD-PR R9-3b(I) road sign, a critical component of Puerto Rico's traffic control system. The design directly mimics the physical sign, ensuring instant recognition by those familiar with Puerto Rican roadways.
Visual Elements & Meaning
The design prominently displays the legend "USE BRIDGE" in bold, capitalized English text, as dictated by the Puerto Rico supplement to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD-PR). Below the main text, it features a smaller "PLACA", signifying that this sign is meant to be a supplemental plaque below another sign. The visual message is straightforward: pedestrians (or other users) are directed to utilize a bridge for crossing instead of a direct road crossing.
The design's "I" (izquierda - left) orientation, cleverly incorporated within the visual layout, suggests that the bridge is located to the left of the sign's location and direction. This element is crucial to the design's function as a clear and localized direction marker. This is usually reflected in arrows on the real sign, but for a t-shirt, it is implied by the direction.
Symbolism
The core symbolism revolves around pedestrian safety and the prioritization of designated crossing areas. The "USE BRIDGE" message serves as a positive instruction for safe passage. The design subtly implies order, safety, and adherence to Puerto Rico’s traffic regulations.
