K53 reservation signs: meanings and what to do

1 reservation sign from the South African road signs manual, with how to recognise each one.

Reservation signs show that a road, lane or area is reserved for particular users, such as buses or pedestrians. The K53 learner's test expects you to recognise the sign and pick the correct response, so the table below pairs each sign with the clue that identifies it.
