Explanation
All vehicles operating at speeds below 25 mph on public roadways must display a reflective orange-red triangle on the rear. You may see this slow-moving vehicle sign on farm vehicles, horse-drawn wagons, and construction equipment. The reflective triangle alerts approaching drivers to the significantly slower speed of the vehicle, allowing them to adjust their speed, maintain a proper following distance, and change lanes if necessary.
