Stop Sign Variants: Yellow vs Red Traffic Signs Explained #1887455 (License: Personal Use)

The image displays two octagonal stop signs side by side: the internationally recognized red sign with white uppercase "STOP" text, and a yellow version with black lettering, sometimes used in temporary or construction zones. Both follow the same shape standard to ensure immediate recognition, though color differences signal context-specific usage. The yellow variant may appear during roadwork or in low-visibility conditions where enhanced contrast is needed.

This image is typically used on transportation safety websites, driver education materials, or municipal traffic guidance pages to explain signage standards and exceptions. It serves users seeking clarity on regulatory vs. temporary signage, especially drivers, engineers, or students studying traffic control devices.
