What this means for you

These regulations define every road sign, road marking and traffic signal in Zimbabwe: what each looks like, its colours, and what it requires of a driver. The Highway Code explains the signs; this is the law that makes them binding.

Signs come in three classes. Class I is the road signs, split into regulatory, warning, guidance and information signs. Class II is the road markings, and Class III the road signals, the robots. Each class has a Part of its own, and the First Schedule sets out every sign with its code: R1 is the stop sign, for example, and RTM1 the stop line.

The drawings are in the printed regulations and are not reproduced here. What each sign looks like and means in practice is on this site's road signs pages.
