Traffic laws are in place to ensure the safety of everyone on the road. But they can’t do their jobs without help from regulatory road safety signs. Signs like stop signs, yield signs, and speed limit signs all exist to keep people safe when behind the wheel, or safe from people who are behind the wheel. These signs literally save lives every day!
Stop signs, for example, are designed to get drivers to stop at intersections and crosswalks before proceeding. When drivers follow the directions these signs provide, they have the necessary time to look around and ensure that it’s safe to proceed or turn onto another street. If these signs weren't there it would result in a high amount of major accidents, so these signs are an important part of keeping everyone safe on the road.

Yes - Portable Sign Stands do add safety to parking lots
But they also add safety to a variety of applications other than parking lots. Portable Sign Stands are perfect for any area where car and foot traffic intermingle. They organize the flow of traffic and instruct vehicle and foot traffic how to behave -with the right sign, of course!
When traffic patterns are compromised during stop light failures or power outages, even low speed roads can become very dangerous. Another great use for portable sign stands is for temporary traffic control.
