## Regulatory Signs You Take for Granted

[Regulatory signs](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/) are all around us every day, telling us when to Stop, where to Enter and how to Park. It’s not until they are missing, or in a different language that we realize how much we rely on them. Here’s a roundup of the Top 10 Signs We Take for Granted!

10. [Speed Bump Signs in the winter](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)

They may seem painfully obvious in July, but when the snow is falling and parking lots aren’t cleared well, a big yellow sign helps keep your bumper attached to your car.

9. [Trail Signs](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)

A trail through the woods can seem perfectly clear…until it isn’t. In a situation where staying on track can be a matter of life or death, having trail markers along the way gets us home safely.

8. [Address Numbers](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)

We still need to find locations by address, even in a GPS world. Address numbers on a home can seem like decoration until you’re trying to find a friend’s house, squinting at mailboxes and dark porches, desperately hoping for any kind of a clue you’re on the right block.

7. [Wet Floor Signs](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)

They’re not just to cover liability for property owners!  A wipeout on a wet tile floor isn’t fun for anyone. People in the United States take them for granted so much that we assume a commercial floor is bone-dry if one isn’t posted.

6. [Student Driver Roof Sign](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)

How else would we know not to honk at the idiot going 10 under the speed limit in the left lane?

5. [Lit EXIT signs](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)

The next time you think the utilitarian green exit sign disrupts the feng shui of an antique theater, remember if all the lights go off in a fire, you’re going to be happy to see how to get out.

4. [Push and Pull Signs on doors](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)

Wait until you visit a foreign country where you don’t speak the language to appreciate how these little indicators keep us from walking into doors face-first.

3. [Speed Limit Signs](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)

It’s a law of nature- when you are driving on an unfamiliar road and see a police car, there will be NO speed limit sign for the next five miles, while there seem to be 100 of them in your neighborhood.

2. [Street Signs](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)

Take a left on Lincoln Ave. Was that Lincoln? Did I just pass it? There wasn’t a sign but I don’t think it was this far…so goes the mental agony of a missing street sign.

1.  [Restroom Signs](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)

It only takes one embarrassing case of mistaken bathroom identity to fully appreciate a well-identified restroom
