Regulatory signs

Keep right of divider

What it means

Keep to the right of the traffic island ahead.

White with black or red; a red circle with a slash means prohibited, a green circle means permitted.

Summarised from the Official MTO Driver’s Handbook. Read the original: MTO Driver’s Handbook – Signs ↗

How to recognise it

A white square with a black arrow that curves down and to the right around a black island shape.

Where you will see it

The tip of a traffic island or median, the start of a divided road, and around obstacles such as a bridge pier in the middle of the road.

What to do when you see it

  1. 1.Pass the island, median or obstruction on its right side.
  2. 2.Move into the right lane early rather than swerving at the last moment.
  3. 3.Do not drive to the left of the sign even if that side looks clear: it may carry oncoming traffic.

On the G1 test

Do not mix it up with the yellow hazard marker: the marker is a warning with diagonal stripes; this is a regulatory sign with an arrow, and it commands rather than warns.
