TxDOT Online Manuel - Chapter 5: Regulatory Signs
Regulatory Sign Definitions
Regulatory signs inform highway users of traffic laws and regulations and indicate the applicability of legal requirements that would not otherwise be apparent.
Chapter 2B of the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (TMUTCD) provides detailed information and guidelines on the application of regulatory signs. This chapter provides additional information and guidelines specific to Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) operations on the use of certain regulatory signs.
The term regulatory sign describes a range of signs that are used to indicate or reinforce traffic laws, regulations or requirements which apply either at all times or at specified times or places upon a street or highway, the disregard of which may constitute a violation, or signs in general that regulate public behavior in places open to the public.
One type of regulatory signs are traffic signs intended to instruct road users on what they must or should do (or not do) under a given set of circumstances. Other types may be signs located on streets and in parking lots having to do with parking, signs in public parks and on beaches or on or in architectural facilities prohibiting specific types of activities.
