RC-104
Do Not Cross Median prohibits driving across the strip separating the two directions of a divided highway — including the paved or grassed crossovers reserved for emergency and maintenance vehicles.
Regulatory signs control how you may use the road — they must be obeyed.
To change direction on a divided highway, continue to the next interchange or signed turnaround. Never nose through a median crossover marked with this sign, even to escape a traffic jam.
Regulatory signs are usually white rectangles or squares with black or red markings. A few have special shapes: a red octagon means Stop and a red-and-white downward triangle means Yield. A red circle with a slash means something is prohibited.
Median crossovers on Alberta highways are for authorized vehicles only — the test treats a U-turn through one as always illegal for regular drivers.
Road signs are one of the five areas the 30-question Alberta Class 7 knowledge test covers, and the largest block in our mock exam at 8 questions. Recognising a sign on a page is easier than recognising it in a question. Drill Class 7 practice questions with answers until the right response is instant.
