Most countries use the same few sign types, but each paints them its own way. This page puts the same kind of sign side by side across 36 countries, warning signs, curve chevrons and crossing signs, then shows the look-alikes people mix up and the detail that tells them apart. For the words on stop and give-way signs, see the stop sign guide.
Test yourself: play Sign Spotter →The warning sign splits the world in two: a yellow diamond in the Americas and Australia, a triangle with a red border in Europe. Then look inside the triangle: white or yellow.
United States A black-on-yellow diamond is the warning sign of the Americas, Australia, New Zealand and much of East and Southeast Asia. In Europe, Ireland is the one country that uses it, which makes it a strong Irish clue.
Also used in: Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, New Zealand, Japan, Thailand, Indonesia
Germany Most of Europe and the United Kingdom warn with a white triangle and a red border. Denmark keeps the inside white, unlike its Nordic neighbours, and South Africa uses the European triangle too, with traffic on the left.
Also used in: France, Spain, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland
Sweden The arrows on bends and roundabouts are painted in national colours: red and white, blue and white, black and yellow or on a fluorescent board.

United States 
Serbia Serbia puts black chevrons on boards framed in fluorescent yellow-green, bright enough to stand out from a distance.
Pedestrian crossing signs come as a blue square, a yellow diamond, a fluorescent yellow-green diamond or a red triangle before the crossing.
Switzerland At the crossing itself, most of Europe puts up a blue square with a white triangle and a walking figure: Switzerland, Germany, Sweden, Bulgaria and many more. The figure and the stripes vary a little from country to country.
Also used in: Spain, Italy, Austria, Hungary, Poland, Romania
Russia 
Ireland The yellow-diamond countries warn of pedestrians with a walking figure on a yellow diamond: Ireland, Brazil, Argentina, the United States and more. Argentina also uses European-style red triangles.
Also used in: Canada, Mexico
Australia Some use a fluorescent yellow-green diamond for pedestrians and school zones: the United States, Chile and Australia. The colour is brighter and greener than the normal yellow.
United Kingdom A red-bordered triangle with a walking figure warns that a crossing is coming. The United Kingdom and Czechia use it, and most of Europe pairs it with the blue square at the crossing itself.
These pairs use almost the same signs. Each one shows a real photo of both countries side by side, and the detail that separates them.
Ireland vs 
United KingdomHow to tell Neighbours that drive on the left with signs in English. Ireland warns with yellow diamonds, the United Kingdom with red-bordered triangles. Irish signs also give speeds in km/h and often add Irish words, like Go mall (slow).
United States vs IrelandHow to tell Both use yellow diamonds. Ireland drives on the left, gives speeds in km/h and often adds Irish words to its signs; the United States drives on the right and uses mph.
Sweden vs 
DenmarkHow to tell Nordic neighbours with the same red-bordered triangle. Look inside it: yellow means Sweden, white means Denmark.
Sweden vs 
NorwayHow to tell Both fill their triangles with yellow, so read the words. Swedish uses ä and ö; Norwegian uses æ and ø. Streets end in -gatan in Sweden and in -gata or -veien in Norway.
Sweden vs 
FinlandHow to tell Both use yellow triangles. Finnish signs often show place names in Finnish and Swedish, like Tampere / Tammerfors, and Finnish words are full of double letters, like aa, kk and tt.
Australia vs 
South AfricaHow to tell Both drive on the left. Australia warns with yellow diamonds; South Africa uses European-style red-bordered triangles.
France vs 
SpainHow to tell Neighbours with different chevrons on their bends: blue and white in France, red and white in Spain. Red-and-white chevrons in France usually belong to roadworks.
Spain vs 
PortugalHow to tell Iberian neighbours with different chevrons: Spain uses red and white, Portugal black and yellow.
Serbia vs 
BulgariaHow to tell Both write in Cyrillic. Serbia puts black chevrons on fluorescent yellow-green boards and often writes in Cyrillic and Latin; Bulgaria uses red-and-white chevrons and Cyrillic only.
Russia vs BulgariaHow to tell Both write in Cyrillic. Russia often frames its crossing signs in fluorescent yellow-green; Bulgaria's are plain. In the words, ы and э mean Russian; Bulgarian has neither and uses ъ often.
Brazil vs 
ArgentinaHow to tell Both use yellow pedestrian diamonds, so read the words: Portuguese in Brazil (Rua, words with ç and ão), Spanish in Argentina (Calle, words with ñ).
The United States, Canada, Mexico and most of South America, plus Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Thailand and Indonesia. In Europe, Ireland is the only country that uses them.
Sweden, Finland, Norway and Poland fill their red-bordered triangles with yellow, and so does South Korea. Denmark and most of Europe keep them white.
France marks permanent bends and roundabouts with blue arrows on white. Most of Europe uses red and white, which France keeps for temporary roadworks.
Ireland uses yellow diamond warning signs and km/h; the United Kingdom uses red-bordered triangles and mph. Irish signs often carry Irish words too.
Russia often mounts its blue crossing squares on fluorescent yellow-green boards. Czechia and some other countries do it around schools.
