TONGAS PROHIBITED SIGN
A "tongas prohibited" sign indicates that horse-drawn carts are not allowed on that road. These signs are placed on roads where tongas could impede the flow of faster-moving traffic and pose a safety risk.
Purpose: To ensure road safety by keeping slow-moving traffic like tongas off roads designated for higher speeds.
Appearance: It is a prohibitory road sign, typically featuring a pictogram of a tonga crossed out with a red circle and diagonal bar, often on a white or yellow background.
Location: The sign is posted at the entry points of roads where tongas are banned.
Reminder:
"Traffic signs guide our journey; obeying them keeps everyone safe on the road."
