Why are Dead End signs important?
Dead End signs warn drivers that the road they are on ends in a dead-end or cul-de-sac. Posted at the entrance of dead-end streets/roads, these signs alert motorists that the street/road will not connect to another street/road, thereby avoiding traffic commotion and saving time. These signs are important also because they give motorists the opportunity to slow down on dead-end roads well in time before reaching the end of the road.
