Which is the sign for a ring road?
- A
- B
- C
- D
Why this is the answer
Ring roads are designed to relieve congestion in towns and city centres.
Why the other answers don't fit
- A
- — The blue circle with three arrows marks a mini-roundabout and tells you which way to go round it.
- B
- — The triangle warns there is a roundabout ahead. A roundabout is not the same thing as a ring road.
- D
- — A blue circle crossed by a red X is the clearway sign: no stopping. It says nothing about routes.

Where this question comes from
The question, its options and the explanation are reproduced word for word from the DVSA revision question bank under licence. The licence requires them to appear unaltered, so we cannot reword them and neither can anyone else — that is why you will meet the same wording on other sites. Everything else on this page is written by Theory Hub: the explanation of why each wrong answer is wrong, the topic guide and the revision notes.
