Regulatory signs — Utah Permit Test

This sign means stop, and a driver must come to a complete stop at it.

It is the one sign with no judgment in it at all. The wheels stop turning, and then you look.

All stop signs.

This sign means a driver must slow down and yield to traffic that has the right-of-way.

Yielding is not stopping, but it becomes stopping the moment anything is coming. The judgment is yours.

A yield sign means you must slow down and yield to traffic that has the right-of-way.

This sign means a driver may not enter the roadway ahead.

It is posted where traffic is coming straight at you, usually on an exit ramp or a one-way street.

Do Not Enter

This sign means a driver may not make a right turn here.

The turn it forbids is usually into a one-way street or across a crossing the corner cannot see.

No Right Turn

This sign means a driver may not make a left turn here.

A left turn crosses oncoming traffic, so it is the first movement taken away where a corner is busy.

No Left Turn

This sign means a driver may not turn around to go back the way they came.

Turning across every lane takes several seconds, and this sign marks the places where nobody has them.

No U-Turn

This sign shows the posted speed limit for the road a driver is on.

It is the number every other speed rule is measured from, and it changes more often than most drivers notice.

These signs tell you about traffic directions, lane use, turning, speed, parking, and other special situations.

This sign means traffic moves only in the direction of the arrow, and a driver may not turn in the opposite direction.

A street that only runs one way has nobody watching for a car coming the other way. There is no version of that which works.

Traffic moves only in the direction of the arrow. Do not turn in the opposite direction of the arrow.

This sign tells a driver they are traveling against traffic and must not continue.

It faces the wrong direction on purpose. Seeing it at all means you are already where nobody expects you.

Never drive the wrong way on a one-way street.

This sign cancels the usual permission to turn right after stopping at a stop signal.

Utah lets you turn right after stopping almost everywhere, so the exception has to be posted to be known.

You may turn right on a red light after coming to a complete stop unless posted otherwise.
