Road signs play a critical role in ensuring the safety of both motorists and pedestrians on roadways. International evidence points to the fact that among the various colours used for road signage, “fluorescent yellow green (FY/G)" or "safety yellow," stands out as a colour that commands attention. FY/G signs have emerged as an effective and attention-grabbing colour to highlight hazardous locations and conditions. FY/G is vibrant and highly visible appearance, especially in adverse weather conditions and low-light situations. However, it is currently not part of the South African Road Traffic Signs Manual (SARTSM), which is the guiding regulation for the application of road signs in South Africa.
