What do the colours on the traffic signal mean?

Red light means stop. When the signal turns red all the vehicles have to stop.

Green light means go. Only when the signal turns green are vehicles free to move ahead.

Yellow means that the vehicles on the road must slow down.

These are the traffic rules for the vehicles.

Traffic signals for pedestrians

You should not cross the road if you see a red board with a man drawn on it. Go ahead only when the walking man’s signal turns green.

Traffic warning signs

The traffic warning signs are triangular in shape and have a red border with a white background.
