If while driving you approach a pedestrian crossing that has triangles as an extension of each of the stripes, what does it indicate?
Signage: Road markings
Explanation
Raised pedestrian crossing
When a **pedestrian crossing** has a **triangle painted on the carriageway** at the end of each of its **white stripes**, it indicates that the crossing is **raised** in relation to the rest of the road.
That is, it is not a level pedestrian crossing, but a **speed bump** or **hump** that forces vehicles to **reduce their speed** to ensure greater safety for pedestrians.
Therefore, the presence of these **triangles as a continuation of the stripes** informs the driver that they are about to drive over a **raised pedestrian crossing**.
