Explanation
If you see a vehicle displaying a fluorescent orange triangle with a reflective red border, it indicates a slow-moving vehicle. Always respond to this sign with caution and slow down. If you need to overtake a slower-moving vehicle on a two-lane, two-way road, use the left lane, which is for oncoming traffic. Before passing, move toward the center line to check if the left lane is clear, ensuring you have enough space to merge back safely.
