Car A
The give way sign at the bottom faces Car A, so Car A gives way to the road that crosses it. Car B is coming through from the left and Car C is turning in from the right, both on the priority road, so Car A moves only once both have gone.

Car C
Car C has a give way sign on its approach at the bottom of the picture and must wait for the crossing road. Car B is on that crossing road, coming through from the left. With everything moving, Car C is the one entering the intersection with no right to.
Rail-road level crossing
Two yellow bars crossed like the letter X, with a red light on each side, mark a railway level crossing. Stop while the red lights flash, and when they are dark still slow, look and listen both ways before you cross the rails.
All of the above
The Code says do not stop or park on or near a corner or an intersection, but it sets no distance for it. The distance this paper works to is 7.5 metres, and neither 6.5 metres nor 7 metres reaches that, so a vehicle left at either one is parked too close to the corner.
Single file.
The Code says never ride more than two abreast, and that single file is much safer. Two abreast is the limit you must not pass, single file is how you should ride, since riding side by side pushes every overtaking vehicle across the centre of the road.
Proceed straight ahead
A green arrow pointing straight ahead releases that one direction while the main light is still red. You may go straight ahead only. A right turn would need its own arrow pointing right.
Amber, Red, Green
The robot cycles amber, then red, then green, then round again. The amber before red warns you that you are about to be stopped, and green follows red directly, with no red and amber shown together.
Not be crossed for the purposes of overtaking
A continuous white line down the centre may not be crossed in order to overtake, however clear the road looks. The line is painted exactly where the view ahead is too short for the manoeuvre to be finished safely.
Have a regulatory effect
Arrows painted on the road surface alongside prohibition lines are orders, not advice. If the arrow in your lane points left, you turn left, and taking any other direction is an offence in the same way that crossing the line is.
Both Car A and B
Car A is round the top left of the circle and Car B is on the right of it, both already on the circle, and traffic already on a circle keeps moving. Car C is still out on the approach road at the right and must give way to both before it enters.
All of the above
You yield to an ambulance or fire engine sounding a siren and to the presidential motorcade, so to all of them. Pull over to the left as far as it is safe to go, stop if you have to, and let them through.
Danger of farm animals
The red triangle carries a cow, which warns of farm animals on or near the road. Wild game is shown by a kudu on the same triangle. Slow down and be ready for a whole herd to cross without warning.
It may not be straddled
A solid yellow line at the left hand edge of the roadway may not be straddled or crossed at all. It is the broken version of that line that you may straddle briefly, to pass a vehicle waiting to turn right.
Dip or ridge ahead
The triangle carries a run of bumps in the road surface, warning that the surface ahead dips and rises. Slow down before you reach it: taking a dip or ridge at speed throws the vehicle off line and can ground it.
Traffic lights out of order
The warning triangle holds a robot with a black bar drawn through it, which tells you the robot at the intersection ahead is out of order. Treat that intersection as uncontrolled: slow right down and give way to traffic on your right.
Car A
The two forks merge into one road. Car B is coming down the left fork and Car A down the right fork, which puts Car B on Car A's right, so Car A stops and lets Car B in. Car C is already away down the shared road and is in nobody's way.
Car A
At an uncontrolled crossroads you give way to traffic on your right. The green car crosses from the road on A's right, so A lets it pass. The blue car turns right from the left hand road into the road A is on, cutting across A as well. Car A moves last.
Car B
Car B is on the right hand road, and the give way sign on that approach faces it, so Car B waits for the other two. Car A is coming up from the bottom and Car C down the fork to the left, both of them on the road that has priority.
Six vehicle lengths
Leave one vehicle length for every 15 km/h you are doing. At 90 km/h that is six vehicle lengths, which is the room you need to pull up if the vehicle in front brakes hard.
I may proceed with caution and without stopping provided there is no other traffic
A give way sign does not oblige you to stop. Slow to a speed at which you could stop, look both ways, and if nothing is coming you may drive on without stopping. The stop sign is the one that demands a halt every time.
When driving in a well lit area
Dip your headlamps wherever the road is already well lit, because main beam adds nothing there and dazzles everyone coming towards you. Dip as well when you meet oncoming traffic and when you close up behind another vehicle.
Traffic already in the intersection regardless of which side it is coming from
Where there are no signs and no robot, a vehicle that is already in the intersection has precedence, whichever side it came from. Once it is clear the ordinary rule takes over and you give way to traffic on your right.
A triangle
Warning signs are triangular, with a red border. The shape alone tells you a hazard is ahead before you have read the symbol inside it. A circle gives an order and a rectangle gives information.
Width restriction
A narrow bridge is a width restriction: the roadway narrows and two vehicles may not be able to pass on it. Read the width plate, slow down, and if a vehicle is already on the bridge wait at your end until it is off.
Stay where you are
Stay where you are. Reversing off the crossing takes you into traffic and pedestrians you cannot see behind you, and driving on against the red is an offence. Wait for green, then move off, and stop further back next time.
