    Who knows why the school crossing sign has a black bar on it? (Traditionally, the lollypop lady [crossing patrol officer] would carry a piece of chalk in her pocket and if a vehicle ignored her order to stop she would note the registration on the sign and report it to the police later.)

    For me the two most confusing signs are (1) a bicycle in a red circle and (2) a bicycle in a red triangle. Red circles are prohibitions, red triangles are warnings. (1) means no bicycles, (2) means beware of cyclists. Unless you understand the general principle, you can make dangerous mistakes.
