IMPLEMENTATION OF TRAFFIC SIGNS AL MUHAJIRIN KINDERGARTEN, BATU MERAH

Abstract

Traffic signs are an important element in the road transportation system that functions to regulate, direct, warn, and provide information to road users. In Indonesia, the regulation of traffic signs is regulated in Law Number 22 of 2009 concerning Road Traffic and Transportation and Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number 13 of 2014. This article discusses the functions and types of traffic signs, including warning signs, prohibitions, commands, and instructions, as well as the challenges of implementing them in the field. The problems faced include low community compliance, poorly maintained condition of signs, weak consistency of law enforcement, and lack of education. The results of the discussion show that the success of the implementation of traffic signs depends on a combination of clear regulations, strict law enforcement, good physical condition of signs, and public awareness to comply with them. Thus, traffic signs not only serve as a symbol on the road, but also a reflection of the nation's culture of discipline and safety.
