What do these triangular road markings on the pavement indicate?
Signage: Road markings
Explanation
Dragon’s teeth and speed reduction
The triangular road markings, called **“dragon’s teeth”**, indicate that you are **approaching a through road or urban road** with residential buildings and possible pedestrians.
Their purpose is to warn you that you must **significantly reduce your speed** to increase the safety of the people who live in or move around the area.
They are, therefore, a **warning marking** that **protects the inhabitants of the built-up area** and serves as a reminder of the need to drive with **greater caution**.
