Learn every Indian traffic sign the way you'll actually see it — on the road.

Signs you can recognise at a glance, rules explained in plain language, and a practice test that tells you exactly what you still need to work on. Built for learner drivers, RTO test candidates and anyone who wants to be safer behind the wheel.

Three families of road signs. Three different jobs.

Every sign in India falls into one of three groups. Once you know the group, the shape and colour alone tell you how to react — before you have even read the symbol.

Mandatory / Regulatory

You must obey

Circles, the STOP octagon and the GIVE WAY triangle. A red ring means something is prohibited; a blue background means something is compulsory. Breaking one is a punishable offence.

  • Red ring + white = prohibition
  • Blue + white symbol = compulsory action
  • Octagon = Stop · Inverted triangle = Give Way

Cautionary / Warning

Slow down and be ready

Upward triangles with a red border warn you about a hazard ahead — a curve, a narrow bridge, a school, falling rocks or a level crossing. They give you time to prepare, not to panic.

  • Red triangle + white = hazard ahead
  • Always placed well before the danger
  • Reduce speed before the hazard, not in it

Informatory / Guide

Useful information

Rectangles that tell you where things are — hospitals, fuel, parking, bus stops, destinations and highway numbers. Blue for city and expressway, green for highways, white for rural roads.

  • Green = national highway
  • Blue = city road or expressway
  • White = rural or village road

What's inside

Everything a learner needs before the RTO test — and everything a licensed driver forgets.

Every sign, drawn clearly

Around seventy signs across all three families, each with its official meaning and a practical note on what to actually do when you meet it on the road.

Road markings & signals

Solid and broken lines, yellow centre lines, zebra crossings, box junctions and chevrons — plus what every traffic light and hand signal is telling you.

Rules in plain language

Right of way, overtaking, parking, pedestrians, helmets, seat belts, alcohol limits and what to do at the scene of an accident.

The penalty table

Every major offence under the Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Act, 2019, with its section number and the fine or imprisonment it carries.

Speed limits that apply

Expressway, highway, city and school-zone limits for cars, buses and trucks — and the one speed rule that never changes.

A test that finds your gaps

Practice mode gives instant feedback. Test mode scores you at the end and shows exactly which questions you got wrong, with the reason.

The numbers every driver should know

Straight from the Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Act, 2019. Your State may increase these amounts, so always check the challan and the local notification.

Please note: these are the penalties stated in the Central Act. A State Government may increase them under Section 210A or fix a compounding amount under Section 200. Always verify the applicable State notification and the actual challan.

Think you know them all?

Take a 20-question test drawn at random from the whole syllabus. You'll get a score, a pass or fail verdict, and a line-by-line review of everything you missed — with the reason why.
