Green signs are used primarily for what purpose?

  1. Warning

  2. Informational

  3. Regulatory

  4. Construction

The correct answer is: Informational

Green signs are primarily used to convey information about specific routes or services, guiding drivers toward locations or directing them to specific destinations. This includes providing directions to hospitals, airports, and other points of interest, as well as indicating the distances to various places. The color green is universally recognized for its association with safe travel and guidance on the roadway. While other colors serve different functions—like warning signs typically being yellow or orange, or regulatory signs being red or white—green signs specifically denote information that is intended to aid in navigation and awareness. This context highlights their role in enhancing driver knowledge and supporting safe and efficient travel.
