Warning signs
Crossroads ahead
What it means
Side roads meet yours from both left and right just ahead. The thicker line on the sign is the road you are on, so you keep priority, but drivers waiting to pull out regularly misjudge how fast you are coming. Ease off, cover the brake, and do not start an overtake as you go through.
