New York Ramp Meter Sign T-Shirt - Design Overview
Visual Representation
This T-shirt showcases the iconic New York ramp meter sign, a familiar sight for drivers entering expressways, interstates, and parkways across the state. The design replicates the standard sign's appearance, ensuring instant recognition by anyone who has navigated New York's roadways.
Color and Shape
The design utilizes the classic color scheme associated with these traffic control signs. Typically, this translates to white lettering set against a green background, a visual cue instantly recognizable to drivers.

The green light symbolizes when vehicles can proceed, while the red light signals a halt.
