Can you guess a road sign’s message from far away by its shape? Perhaps after years of driving you have subconsciously become accustomed to the fact that triangular signs are used for warnings of potential hazards ahead. Here are some important facts about triangle road signs and what they mean to drivers.

Almost all of these triangular signs have a thick red border surrounding the text or image on a white background. Black imagery is common, but sometimes color is added, such as for the image of a stop light with red, yellow and green lights.

Legally, officers are not required to inform the public they are being recorded during an interaction, but they are trained to do so when they can.
Body-worn video (BWV) cameras were mandated by the Government of Alberta in March 2023 for all police agencies in Alberta. Edmonton Police Service (EPS) initiated a proof of concept for BWV with a select group of officers in July 2023 to assess the operational impacts. EPS is now moving towards service-wide implementation of the cameras, meaning the public will start to notice more officers will be wearing a BWV camera.

Police officers will be carrying a camera approximately the size of a pack of cards on the front of their uniform. The officers activate recording with audio and video during interactions with the public when the nature of the interaction is known to be, or become, investigative or enforcement related in nature.
Some triangle signs have no text or image, but communicate exclusively with shape and color. A reflective orange triangle sign, for example, appears on the rear of certain vehicles to indicate speed of 35 mph or less. These signs are often seen on farming or road work equipment and are even used for horse-drawn carriages. In the daytime the sign appears to be solid orange, whereas at night it looks like a hollow red triangle.

In the U.S. red signs, or signs with red borders, indicate that they are regulatory and must be obeyed. Yellow, on the other hand, indicates a warning to advise drivers to stay alert, but does not mandate any type of driver action. So a red Yield sign means you must slow down and yield the right of way to traffic, whereas a yellow Yield sign is an advisory. These signs are commonly placed near intersections, freeway entrances or exits.
Due to sign shape, which limits the amount of text that is displayed, many triangular signs just use black images of road configurations. Some of the most common include the following:

Body Worn Videos are expected to be deployed to the rest of the service in Spring 2025. The order in which other areas will receive body worn cameras is yet to be determined.
Section 33C and 33B of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act authorizes the collection of information from the public. The recordings are disclosed to the courts when required, but private information of third parties captured in any recording is first redacted.
In many cases, triangular signs point upward to indicate various warning messages besides yield, whereas when an equalateral triangle points downward it specifically means Yield. Road sign messages, shapes and colors are determined by the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD). An isosceles triangle that points to the right, exclusively means you are entering a no passing zone.
