This sign prohibits all motorized and non-motorized vehicles from entering beyond this point. It's often used at one-way streets (wrong direction), restricted zones, or closed roads, ensuring total restriction to traffic for safety or regulation purposes.

The No Stopping sign means that drivers are not allowed to stop their vehicle at all, not even briefly, for any reason—unless directed by a police officer or in an absolute emergency. This rule helps prevent traffic congestion and ensures clear passage, especially in high-risk or high-speed zones like tunnels, bridges, or intersections.

The No Entry for Buses sign indicates that buses are prohibited from entering the road beyond this point. It’s often used on narrow or residential roads where large vehicles could cause congestion or pose a danger.

This sign indicates that parking is not allowed at any time in the area where the sign is placed. However, temporary stopping is allowed, such as dropping off or picking up passengers — as long as the driver stays with the vehicle. It helps keep traffic flowing and ensures visibility and access on busy or narrow roads.

To correct a rear-wheel skid, you should steer in the same direction as the skid (steer into it). This helps you regain control by aligning the wheels with the direction of travel. Avoid sudden braking or acceleration, as this can make the skid worse.

Waving pedestrians to cross can be risky because other vehicles may be approaching and not see the pedestrian. Pedestrians should only cross when it's safe and when vehicles are stopping for them.

When approaching a parked vehicle with a driver seated inside, always be mindful that the door may be opened suddenly. This could obstruct your path or cause a collision, especially if you're driving too close to the parked vehicle.

Alcohol affects the central nervous system and impairs various functions, including coordination, judgment, and reaction time. When you consume alcohol, it slows your reaction time, making it harder to respond quickly to sudden situations on the road. This can be dangerous for both the driver and others. It does not directly affect your vehicle or brakes, nor does it increase alertness.

Explanation: If you're driving on a motorway at night or in poor visibility, you must always use your headlights, even if the road is well lit. Other road users must be able to see you, but you should avoid causing dazzle.

Your reaction time will be much slower when you are tired, as fatigue reduces alertness, concentration, and the ability to respond quickly to hazards. Driving while tired increases the risk of accidents, so it's important to take breaks and rest if you feel drowsy.

On a wet road, applying your brakes gently helps avoid skidding, which can occur when the tires lose grip on the slippery surface. Sudden or harsh braking can cause the wheels to lock, leading to a loss of control. By braking gently, you maintain better control of the vehicle and reduce the risk of skidding.

Horses can be easily startled by sudden movements or loud noises. Always overtake carefully and slowly to ensure the safety of both the rider and the horse. Give them plenty of space and avoid honking or revving your engine. If necessary, wait until it is completely safe before passing.

"Watch carefully for the sudden appearance of pedestrians."

When a bus is stopped at a bus stop, pedestrians may suddenly step into the road, especially passengers getting off the bus. You should reduce your speed, be extra cautious, and be prepared to stop if necessary to avoid accidents.

When following a truck on a steep hill, it's important to maintain a safe gap to give yourself enough reaction time and avoid accidents if the truck needs to stop suddenly. It also helps you stay clear of exhaust fumes and allows you to react to any changes in the truck's speed or direction.

Using a hand-held phone while driving is dangerous and can distract you. It’s safest to stop in a secure location before using your phone.

Since you are driving on a clear night with a steady stream of oncoming traffic and the national speed limit applies, you should expect to see dipped headlights rather than full beam headlights.

Using full beam headlights in this situation would dazzle oncoming drivers, creating a safety hazard. Full beams should only be used when there is no oncoming traffic and no vehicles ahead that could be blinded by your lights.

Seat belts are fitted in vehicles for safety on both long and short trips. They help protect you in case of an accident, regardless of the length of your journey.

When the fuel pump symbol (fuel warning light) on your dashboard is lit, it usually means:

🚨 Low Fuel Level – Your fuel tank is running low, and you should refuel soon to avoid running out of fuel.

However, in some cases, it can also indicate:
🔧 Fuel System Issue – If the light stays on even after refueling, there might be a problem with the fuel sensor, fuel pump, or fuel filter.

⚠️ What to Do?

• Refuel as soon as possible to avoid getting stranded.
• If the light stays on even after refueling, have a mechanic check the fuel system.

The right foot is used to operate both the accelerator and the brake pedal, allowing for smooth transitions between speeding up and slowing down. The clutch pedal (in manual cars) is always operated with the left foot.

The total stopping distance is the sum of the thinking distance and the braking distance.

So, for this vehicle:

• Thinking distance = 18 metres
• Braking distance = 55 metres

Total stopping distance = 18 metres + 55 metres = 73 metres

The vehicle's total stopping distance will be 73 metres.

If a warning light appears on your instrument panel, it’s important to check out the problem quickly and safely. Ignoring warning lights can lead to more serious issues or even damage to your vehicle. If you’re unsure of the problem, it’s best to pull over safely and assess the situation or consult the vehicle’s manual for guidance. Continuing to drive without addressing the issue could compromise your safety or the vehicle's performance.

You can tell if your vehicle's tires are losing grip on a wet road by:

• Feeling the steering wheel become unresponsive or loose: If the tires lose grip, the steering may feel less connected to the road, making it hard to control the vehicle.
• Hearing a sloshing or splashing sound: If the tires start hydroplaning, you may hear water being displaced.
• The vehicle starts to skid or slide: If the tires lose grip, your vehicle may slide or skid, especially when braking or turning.
• The car feels like it’s drifting: You may feel the car start to drift or slide sideways even with gentle steering inputs.

When one rear tyre is stuck in sand or mud, steering in the direction of the stuck tyre can help the vehicle gain traction and move out of the rut. This maneuver allows the tyre to move out of the obstruction and get the vehicle back on track more effectively.

In an emergency on a wet road, keep both hands on the steering wheel and apply the brakes gradually to avoid skidding and maintain control of the vehicle. Sudden braking or accelerating can cause you to lose traction.

For towing a vehicle, it’s best to use a metal bar rather than a rope or conveyor chain, as it provides better control and safety for both vehicles. A strong metal bar is a safer and more secure method for towing, especially on major roads.

A road sign showing a woman holding a child's hand is a school zone or school crossing sign. It is typically placed close to a school to warn drivers to slow down and watch for children crossing the road.

According to the Ghana Highway Code, Red means: "STOP. Wait behind the stop line on the carriageway."
Amber means: "STOP at the stop line." If you have already crossed the white line when the light turns amber, you should proceed with caution. If you have not crossed the white line yet, you must stop.

Double-parking is illegal in all types of roads, including one-way roads, major roads, and residential areas. It obstructs traffic flow and can cause accidents or delays. Always park in designated spaces.

A solid white line marking a cycle lane indicates that you must not drive in that lane during its operational period. This lane is reserved for cyclists, and driving in it could endanger them or lead to a traffic violation.

A conviction for driving under the influence can affect your driver’s license, potentially leading to its suspension or revocation.

This is a Wheelchair Crossing sign.

The sign indicates that individuals using wheelchairs may be crossing or present in the area. Drivers should reduce speed and exercise extra caution.

The sign shown means Dual Carriageway Ends.

Dual Carriageway Ends warns the driver that the divided road will soon become a single road with traffic in both directions. Proceed with caution.

You’re looking at a Cattle Crossing sign.

This sign warns that cattle may be crossing or walking along the road ahead. Drivers should slow down and be prepared to stop if necessary.

That’s a Carriageway Narrows from Left Road Sign.

Carriageway Narrows from Left alerts drivers that the left edge of the road reduces in width ahead. Keep to the right and drive carefully.

This sign indicates Road Work Ahead.

It alerts drivers to construction or maintenance activities on the road ahead. Drivers should slow down, follow instructions, and watch out for workers and machinery.

The correct answer is "Turn Left".

This sign means you must turn left when you reach the junction. You can’t go straight or turn right — left turn only.

The correct answer is "Priority To Vehicle From Opposite Direction".

This sign means cars coming from the other side have the right to go first. You must wait until the road is clear before you move.

The correct answer is "Turn Left at Junction".

This sign instructs drivers to make a left turn at the next intersection. They cannot go straight or turn right.

The correct answer is "Priority Road".

This sign means vehicles on this road have the right-of-way over others entering or crossing it.

The correct answer is "No Through Road".

Warns that the road ends ahead. Only use it if you have a reason to enter (e.g., visiting someone there).
