Abstract

Traffic signs are important components of the whole transportation system,which play an important role in controlling and leading traffic flows.This paper aims at exploring the application effects of the various types of traffic signs in the real transportation environment.This paper has an inspection on the usage and the cognitive level of the traffic signs of drivers in their daily works through using methods of combining an urban car test and a questionnaire survey.The results suggest that drivers have a basic reliability on the traffic signs system and the cognitive level of the traffic signs of drivers is improving along with the accumulation of driving experiences.
