Question: A sign showing a pedestrian in a red circle with a slash means what?
Answer options:
- Pedestrian crossing ✅ No pedestrians allowed
- School zone
- Trail entrance
Correct answer: No pedestrians allowed
Explanation: In Ontario, a red circle with a diagonal slash represents a regulatory prohibition, meaning the action shown inside the circle is strictly forbidden. Therefore, a pedestrian symbol inside this circle indicates that pedestrians are not allowed to enter or cross that area. The incorrect options are wrong because school zones, trail entrances, and pedestrian crossings utilize warning or informational signs—such as fluorescent green pentagons or yellow diamonds—rather than prohibitive regulatory symbols. Understanding that red circles with slashes always denote prohibitions is a core Highway Traffic Act concept highly tested on the Ontario G1 exam, making it essential to distinguish these regulatory signs from standard warning signs.
