Divided Highway Ends
warning sign · diamond · yellow
The median ends ahead — you're returning to a two-way roadway with only paint between you and oncoming traffic.
- Visual breakdown
- Yellow diamond with two arrows that converge from either side of an island into a single roadway.
- Shape recognition
- Mirror image of divided-highway-begins: the island shape sits at the bottom, lanes join above it.
- Color recognition
- Yellow warning — the protection you've enjoyed is about to disappear.
- Memory trick
- The median quits, the paint takes over. Expect headlights across the line again.
- Real-world example
- Where a bypass rejoins the old road, drivers fresh off the divided section forget oncoming traffic exists — no more passing without checking ahead.
- Common mistakes
- Confusing which end of the divided pair you're at. Begins = island at top (lanes split); Ends = island at bottom (lanes rejoin).
- Quick recall method
- Arrows rejoin = median gone; two-way traffic resumes.
