MUTCD-TX R12-2cT (Texas) Road Sign T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt features the design of the MUTCD-TX R12-2cT road sign, a critical traffic control device used in Texas. The sign’s design serves a very specific purpose related to roadway safety and weight restrictions.
Visual Representation and Symbolism
The artwork replicates the official layout and markings of the R12-2cT sign. This includes the distinct shape, color scheme, and textual elements mandated by the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (TMUTCD). The sign prominently displays information about axle weight limits, which is indicated by the numerical value specified. The design’s primary function is to communicate to drivers, especially those operating heavy vehicles, that there is a maximum axle weight permitted on the road or structure ahead. Exceeding this limit is not safe.
The design’s symbolism revolves around public safety, roadway infrastructure preservation, and adherence to traffic regulations. The sign’s presence signifies a commitment to protecting both drivers and the physical integrity of roads and bridges.
Design Elements
The design will typically include the following key elements, which when present on a shirt, represent the full design specification:
- The shape of the sign (shape varies)
- The background color, which is typically white.
- The standard font used for road signs, ensuring clear readability.
- The text "AXLE WEIGHT LIMIT"
- Numerical value, representing the maximum weight allowed.
