What is a slow moving vehicle (SMV) sign?
The slow-moving vehicle sign is a brightly reflective orange triangle with a red border that indicates to other drivers that the vehicle displaying the sign is traveling at a slower speed than usual traffic. This sign is indispensable for ensuring road safety and preventing accidents, making it an essential component for all slow-moving vehicles. With its bold and eye-catching design, the slow-moving vehicle sign is easy to spot and serves as a clear warning to other drivers to take caution on the road.
New usage of the SMV sign
Starting from December 1996, any vehicle that is unable to travel faster than 40 km/h needs to display the Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) sign. This includes not only farm tractors and self-propelled farm equipment but also horse-drawn carriages and road construction vehicles. This simple requirement helps to improve road safety and prevent accidents. It reminds other drivers to be aware of slow-moving vehicles and take necessary precautions such as slowing down and giving them more space.
The SMV sign is a must-have for slow-moving vehicles that tow other vehicles. It is essential to hang the sign on the rearmost vehicle in any combination of vehicles. The sign should be centered between 2 meters and 0.5 meters above the roadway. With this product, drivers can promote safety on the road, making it easier for other drivers to identify slow-moving vehicles and take necessary precautions to avoid accidents.
