Drawings of traffic rules signs. Traffic signs for children with explanations

The baby grows and strives to explore the world around him, becoming more inquisitive. Let's use this natural curiosity to teach a child how to behave safely on the street, and especially on the road. Of course, you need to start with yourself and review your behavior on the road. Very often we, parents, ignore road signs and basic self-preservation instincts and run across the road, thereby setting a bad example for our child. It would seem that there is a traffic light or a road sign prohibiting crossing in this place, but no one cares... Despite the fact that the state is implementing various programs aimed at improving road safety in the country, tens of thousands of Russians die under the wheels of cars. The statistics on road accidents involving children are simply terrifying. And parents are largely to blame for this situation because they did not show their children traffic signs in time and did not teach them to follow road safety rules.

The Your Child website has prepared this material for parents and teachers, in which we will tell you about the most important road signs so that you can convey this, as it turns out, vital information to your children.

In general, road signs are divided into several categories, with a total of several hundred of them, which, you see, is too many even for a child’s inquisitive mind. Therefore, from each category we will select only those signs that are found most often in any locality.

	The first sign that occurs very often is pedestrian crossing sign. This sign indicates an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing, that is, one where there is neither a traffic light nor a traffic controller. It seems very important to tell the child that you need to cross the road only in the place where there is this road sign.
	Second sign- underground pedestrian crossing sign, informs about the availability of this convenient way to cross the road. There is another sign indicating a land crossing, in which a person goes up. It is worth explaining to your child that an underground (or overground) pedestrian crossing is a safe way to cross the road and should be used.
	The third sign is called "Bus or trolleybus stop", it indicates the place where a public transport stop is organized. The child should be reminded that playing within the coverage area of ​​this road sign, and especially running onto the roadway, is strictly prohibited!
	The fourth sign is found most often in courtyards, it is called "Living sector", and also in the picture there is another sign “End of residential area”. In the area covered by the “Residential Zone” sign, drivers are required to give way to pedestrians. But despite this formal requirement of traffic rules, accidents with children occur in courtyards. There are several reasons for this - the driver’s inexperience, his fatigue, but the children themselves can also be to blame. Teach your child not to run out onto the road located in the yard, to be more careful and circumspect.
	The fifth sign is called "Pedestrian zone". It means that the movement of all vehicles is prohibited. It is safe for a child to play in this area, but nevertheless it is worth remembering about reckless drivers in cars for whom the rules of the road are simply not written. Teach your children to correctly assess the situation and be prepared for the unexpected.
	The sixth sign does not directly affect the safety of a child on the road, but it occurs very often, especially at intersections. This sign is called "Driving directions by lane". The purpose of this sign is to indicate the number of lanes before the intersection and indicate the direction of movement along each of the lanes.

Let's move on to the second category of road signs, which is called "Warning Signs". It seems that these signs are only needed by drivers, but pedestrians also need them. Let's see what signs are in this category. Not all signs will be described below, but only those that are more common and will be of interest to our children.

	The first sign is called "Railway crossing with barrier", it is designed to inform drivers about an upcoming railway crossing. Children should be explained that being near a railway crossing, much less playing on it, is very dangerous.
	There is a variation of the above sign called " Railway crossing without barrier". Everything said above directly applies to this sign.
	The next sign is called "Artificial hump". Why is it needed? It is needed precisely to create safe conditions for pedestrian traffic. Drivers, seeing this sign, know that there will be a bump on the road, they are forced to slow down.

The next group of signs is service signs. They do not directly affect the child’s safety on the road, but inquisitive children ask a lot of questions when they see them on the road.

	Let's start getting acquainted with this group of road signs with gas station sign. This sign indicates that a gas station is located nearby, and how far it is located is indicated by the numbers under the sign. In the example given, the gas station is located at a distance of 800 meters.
	Next sign - "Car maintenance". It tells the driver how far away the service center is and where a technical problem with the car can be repaired. The number on the sign indicates the distance to the service in meters.
	The third sign of this category, which raises many questions among the younger generation, is car wash sign. Indicates a place where car owners can wash their dirty car.

Here's a review of traffic signs we did. Of course, we didn’t look at all the signs, because there are several hundred of them, but we tried to describe those signs that are of the greatest interest to children and, most importantly, have a direct impact on their safety on the roads.

Even if you are not a driver and such a joyful event as obtaining a driver’s license is not expected in the near future, knowledge of road signs will not be superfluous. Moreover, they form an important part of the rules of the road traffic system and apply equally to all its participants.

Basically, road signs are presented in the form of standardized graphic designs and are located either along roads or in places with a large number of people, for example, in a pedestrian crossing or subway. In addition, these are the main assistants in correct orientation on the roads and in the area.

Classification of road signs

The structure of road signs is clearly systematized and divides signs into eight groups, depending on their functions and semantic community.

So, the main types of signs are:

• warning;
• priority;
• prohibiting;
• prescriptive;
• particularly prescriptive;
• informational and indicative;
• service;
• additionally informative.

Each of these groups has its own characteristics and specific application.

1. Warning signs. Shape: red triangle with white background. Well visible from afar. These signs are the safest and most useful because they are not restrictive or prohibitive. Their main function is notification of dangerous sections of the road, the nature of the potential threat and traffic difficulties, and warning against road accidents. Numbering starts with the number “1”.
2. Priority signs. They come in different shapes and colors. There are only thirteen of them and therefore do not cause difficulties in remembering. A feature of priority signs is the determination of the priority right to cross roadways, intersections and narrow sections of roads. This group of signs includes: main road, movement without stopping is prohibited, priority of oncoming traffic, etc. Numbering starts with the number “2”.
3. Prohibition signs. Mostly round in shape with a black pattern on a white background and a serial number of category “3”. Meaning: prohibition of certain actions on the road, introduction or cancellation of traffic restrictions. The most famous: “brick” (entry prohibited), prohibition of parking or stopping, overtaking, speed limit, etc.
4. Mandatory signs. Also round in shape, but with white designs on a blue field. Group numbering starts with the number “4”. Function: indicating the direction of movement on certain sections of the road, limiting the minimum speed, warning about subsequent prohibition signs.
5. Special instructions signs. Group numbering starts with "5". Few, but very significant. They combine elements of prohibitory and prescriptive signs. Meaning: entering or canceling certain traffic modes, adjusting one-way traffic flow, designating a residential area, pedestrian crossing, priority of road lanes, and so on. Fines for violating these sign requirements directly depend on their type and range.
6. Information and directional signs. In the shape of a square or rectangle with a blue border and a white/black design on a blue/white background. The group serial number is “6”. Responsible for informing all road users about populated areas, the nature of the road, the location of transport lanes, established travel modes and related recommendations.
7. Service marks. The shape and color are the same as the information ones. The numbering starts with the number “7”. Function: information about various services and facilities - hotels, gas stations, campsites, cafes, etc. Signs are located at turns to the service location or directly next to them. Like category “6” signs, service signs also have exclusively informative meaning.
8. Additional information signs. Presented in the form of rectangular plates with a black border and a pattern on a white background. The main purpose is to complement and clarify the actions of road signs from other categories. Never used on their own.

Road and children

With the help of this video, your child will be able to learn all the traffic signs.

A separate issue is to familiarize the child with the traffic rules. After all, as you know, traffic rules are not written for children and they think little about their own safety while moving across the road. This is why teaching them basic road signs from an early age is so important.

A truly children's sign warning of their appearance from the territory of an educational and similar institution adjacent directly to the road is the sign "Careful, children!"

It belongs to the warning group and should be taken into account not only by drivers, but also by children themselves, telling them that crossing the road in a given place is prohibited. In addition, similar stickers are used on public transport intended for transporting children.

Other most common signs for children are:

Sign "Crosswalk" with a depicted zebra on it and indicating the location of the overpass of the roadway. However, the same sign, but in a red triangle, acts as a warning to the driver about approaching the crossing and the need to reduce speed. For a pedestrian, this is a clear signal that crossing the road at the location of the sign is prohibited.

Sign "Underground pedestrian crossing". It is installed at the entrance near the crossing, indicating the place of safe crossing of the street underground.

Sign “Tram/bus stop location”. Informs about the location of public transport stops and passengers' expectations.

Sign "Footpath". Indicates a road intended for pedestrians only. The general rules of behavior for pedestrians apply.

Sign "No Pedestrians". The name of the sign speaks for itself. Installed in places where traffic may be unsafe. Often used to temporarily restrict movement.

Sign "Bike Lane" clearly indicates the road exclusively for bicycles and mopeds. Moving other types of transport here is strictly prohibited. In addition, this road can also be used by pedestrians, in the absence of a sidewalk.

Sign "Bicycles are prohibited". It speaks of the impossibility of using a bicycle for movement in this place. There is danger for cyclists on the road. When introducing a child to the principles of traffic and signs, it is necessary to pay great attention to the rules of behavior in public places, when crossing the street, waiting for transport, etc.

After all, extra vigilance is a sure guarantee of his safety!

Warning signs and their meaning

Instructions

Prepare a sheet of paper on which you will draw road signs. signs. Theoretically, it can be lined, for example a notebook. The presence of markings will allow you to convey exact proportions, while avoiding unintentional distortion. Also stock up on templates that will serve as a basis for the drawing.

The most important signs for pedestrians are the signs that regulate their movement. Therefore, start with the image of a “Pedestrian crossing” - the simplest sign from the point of view of drawing technique.

Draw a square and place an isosceles triangle in it. Fill the free space between two geometric shapes with blue.

Inside the triangle, draw a man walking along a pedestrian zebra crossing. The direction of its movement indicates the location of the sign in relation to the roadway - it always “looks” in the direction of the road.

Place the head closer to the top of the figure, mark it as a slightly flattened oval. Draw the torso and limbs in the form of thickened lines, place the legs between the zebra stripes. Paint the figure and road markings black.

Signs indicating the presence of ground and underground passages are drawn slightly differently. Using a ruler, draw a square, place the figure of a person inside it, which should remain white, while making the background blue.

A sign prohibiting pedestrian traffic is drawn in a circle. Using a compass or by hand, mark a circle, inside which you will draw a walking man. Paint the figurine black.

Thicken the border of the circle, draw it in red, cross out the pedestrian with a scarlet diagonal line so that its lower end points to the direction of the person’s movement.

The content of the service marks is placed in a rectangle with rounded edges, inside of which there is a square. The space between them is colored blue, while the background of the smaller geometric figure remains white.

Elements indicating a gas station, telephone, car wash, etc. are painted black. The exception is that the designation of a first aid station always contains a red cross.

• Examples of road signs

First road signs appeared along with cars. Paris is considered their homeland, where special signs and inscriptions began to be placed to avoid accidents between horses and cars. At first there were only warnings signs, then their number became more and more due to the increase in the number of cars on the roads. Now their number is very large, and the usual composition was formed not so long ago, in the twentieth century.

Instructions

You can make a sign if you have the necessary materials and equipment. First, find a suitable support on which the sign itself will be attached directly. It can be a small diameter wooden beam, or it can simply be fixed to existing terrain.

Cover the base for the sign with reflective film. Stick it on a dry and clean surface without traces of corrosion. Additionally, treat with alcohol to degrease and improve the surface. The film can be applied to uneven surfaces, with roughness and notches. Good and high-quality material will ensure color constancy both in and at night. Clean the film with a detergent solution in water. After washing, rinse the film with water.

Apply an image of a road sign to the film. To do this, you can use a pre-prepared stencil or blank. The image can be made using paint, or pasted with adhesive tape of the appropriate color. After this, dry the sign, wipe it, and place it in the place where it should be.

In the “Layers” tab, click the “Create a new layer” button (its icon is made in the form of a flipped paper sheet) and name it “Triangle”. To rename a layer, double-click on its name, enter text from the keyboard and press Enter.

Select the “Rectangular Marquee” tool (hotkey M, switch between adjacent elements Shift+M) and use it to draw a square: hold down the left button somewhere in the upper left part of the work area, drag the mouse to the lower right part and release the button. You will get a frame, the borders of which will look like “walking ants” - this is the selection area.

If you want to paint over this area, activate the Fill tool (hotkey "G", switch between adjacent tools - Shift + G), select a color (F6) and right-click inside the selection area.

Click the "Edit" menu item and then "Free Transform" (Ctrl+T) to invoke the object modification command. Transformation markers - small transparent squares - will appear in the corners and on each side of the rectangle. Right-click inside the selection area and select “Perspective” from the menu that appears. Click on the top left handle and drag it to the middle of the top side of the square. Together with the left side of the rectangle, the right side will also move towards the center. The isosceles triangle is ready.
