   Format of signs
   Common layout of signs:
   Signs are often used in public places to show the requirements for people, to give information or to attract people’s attention. Signs can be used for different purposes. For example, traffic signs give you important information about traffic rules, warn you about dangerous road conditions and help you find your way. The language on signs features the use of short words and phrases, supported by different symbols in various colors and shapes for easy identification. Some signs are written or printed in capital letters.
