What information do guide signs typically provide?

Guide signs are specifically designed to assist drivers in navigation and orientation by providing essential information about directions to various locations, such as cities and towns. These signs help travelers understand how to reach their destinations and are typically found along highways and roads.

While other types of signs serve different purposes—such as traffic laws and regulations that inform drivers about legal requirements (like speed limits) or warning signs that alert drivers to potential hazards—guide signs are focused primarily on aiding navigation rather than enforcing traffic rules or indicating nearby services like hospitals and schools. This makes the distinction clear, as their primary role is to direct and inform drivers about routes to take.
