Traffic Signs Manual - Chapter 4, Diagram 822 (2008) T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt showcases the iconic road sign, Diagram 822, as defined in Chapter 4 of the UK Traffic Signs Manual. The design faithfully recreates the official visual representation of a 'PASSING PLACE' on a narrow road.
The Artwork: A Clear and Concise Message
The design features a white rectangular plate, the standard background for regulatory signs in the UK. Centered prominently on this plate are the words "PASSING PLACE" in a bold, sans-serif font. The layout is simple and designed for instant recognition, reflecting the sign's primary function: to immediately alert drivers to the presence of passing places on a single-track or narrow road.
Meaning and Symbolism: Navigating Narrow Roads
The "PASSING PLACE" sign represents a designated area on a narrow road where vehicles can pull over to allow oncoming traffic to pass safely. The design symbolizes the crucial need for drivers to be prepared to give way and to use these designated areas to maintain traffic flow and prevent obstruction on roads where two vehicles cannot safely pass each other. The clarity of the design reflects the importance of clear communication in road safety.
The design is therefore a visual representation of a key traffic management tool, embodying the idea of shared responsibility and smooth traffic flow in challenging road conditions.
