Frail pedestrians

This warning sign means frail pedestrians are likely to cross the road ahead, or blind or disabled pedestrians if the plate below says so. Slow down, watch the pavements and be ready to stop: older and disabled people may need more time to cross, and may not see or hear you coming.

Official Highway Code caption: “Frail (or blind or disabled if shown) pedestrians likely to cross road ahead.”

Listed under “Mostly triangular” in The Highway Code: traffic signs (GOV.UK). For every sign in more detail, see the Department for Transport’s Know your traffic signs.
