Which sign warns of an overhead electric cable?

• A. Zebra Crossing
• B. Overhead Electric Cable
• C. Pedestrians In Road Ahead
• D. Tunnel Ahead

Answer: (B)

This is about recognizing a sign that warns you about electrical hazards above your vehicle. The sign that shows an overhead electric cable is the one that communicates a risk of live cables overhead, so you should be prepared for the possibility of contact with lines and ensure your route or height clearance is safe. You’d typically slow down and check that your vehicle or any load won’t come into contact with cables.

The other signs point to different hazards: a sign showing a zebra crossing warns about pedestrians crossing ahead, a sign indicating pedestrians in the road ahead warns of people on the road, and a sign for a tunnel ahead warns of entering a tunnel. None of these relate to overhead electrical cables, so they’re not the correct warning in this scenario.
