In Intersection Signs and Pavement Markings (Revised 2018) , you'll learn ...
- Definition of an Intersection
- Regulatory Signs
- Restricted Movement Signs
- Intersection Lane Control Usage Signs
Overview
This four hour course will discuss the requirements for the placement of different types of signs and pavement markings to guide and control traffic at the approaches and through an intersection. These intersection control signs and pavement markings supplement the Traffic Signal, and they must conform to the latest edition (2009) Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (USDOT MUTCD).

These are: Regulatory Signs, Warning Signs, and Guide Signs, supplemented by Pavement Markings. They help reduce vehicle and pedestrian accidents within an intersection that can involve years of litigation.
