A speed restriction sign:

Warns of highway conditions requiring slower speeds.
May be ignored in perfect dry conditions.
Has a rectangular shape.
Informs you that you should begin to reduce your speed.
Explanation

Speed restriction signs (yellow diamonds with black text) provide advance warning of reduced speed zones ahead. These signs appear before the actual speed limit change and require drivers to begin decelerating. The new, restricted limit takes effect at the subsequent regulatory speed limit sign, regardless of weather or visibility conditions.
