The Brake Check Exit sign is used to warn drivers about a facility where vehicles may be stopped to test brakes.

• A. Stop Ahead
• B. End Speed Limit
• C. Brake Check Exit
• D. No Parking

Answer: (C)

This sign conveys that a brake testing facility may be nearby where vehicles could be stopped for brake checks. It directly alerts drivers to the possibility of being asked to pull in for a brake test, so you should be prepared to slow down and follow any directions from inspectors.

The other signs point to unrelated situations: Stop Ahead warns of a forthcoming stop sign, End Speed Limit marks the end of a posted speed limit, and No Parking prohibits parking in the area. None of those indicate a brake-testing operation, so they don’t fit the message of this sign.
