This is due to a new regulation stating that the amber light cannot overlap with the green light for pedestrians. Since October 1st, local authorities have been required to change their traffic light sequences; otherwise, they face fines.
The first STOP sign in history was installed on August 31, 1914, in Michigan (USA). The image shows the new design of the STOP sign in Spain, used since 2025, which adopts the US design for better visibility, leaving behind the CCRIGE font.

I just found this new subreddit, and seeing the name reminded me of this special "park & ride" I've seen in my country, Spain. They're constantly building more bike lanes and improving public transport there, and this is clear proof of that. I don't know if these bike "park & ride" are much more common in other European countries than in Spain, or if they're rare to see in the US. The question is: could this type of bike "park & ride" be installed everywhere with high cyclist traffic, or is it preferable for buses to simply have bike supports? What do you think?
Sign at kilometer 120 of the AP-68 motorway about an upcoming rest area in 5 km. For an unknown reason, they added this cute car sleeping on the sign.

Hi! I'm trying to convert .png files to .svg. I want to import the original files into Inkscape, but it won't let me for some reason. I've tried other upload methods, but they didn't work either. I finally managed to work around it by taking a screenshot over the original images, but I don't like it, especially because it reduces the quality of the original image, sometimes making things worse. I've tried resetting Inkscape, but that didn't work either. Can anyone help me? There's no rush.

Hello everyone! Today I'm going to show you a sign I made for driving directions during a solar eclipse, which will be visible in Spain on August 12th. This sign follows the official 2014 design guidelines. There are a few non-official signs, such as "Eclipse Glasses Prohibited" and "Photos/Videos Prohibited," but they adhere to the design guidelines of other signs created by the authorities like the DGT, the Spanish Directorate General of Traffic. The regulatory guidelines follow the official DGT regulations found on this page, especially regarding the special variable message signs, which you can see further to the right.
If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments. Thank you.
P.S.: I don't intend to violate rule 2 of this subreddit, which mentions "signs edited with Photoshop," but I believe that rule refers to real signs edited for humorous purposes. Besides, there are other people on this subreddit who have created new signs for non-humorous purposes, as seen in this other post.
Hello, Reddit! This is my first post on this new alternative account I created. To be clear, this is NOT an account made for ban evasion, only to talk about for road signs/infrastructure and traffic in my home country, Spain. So that way, i have an clear algorithm of actual interests I can talk about, instead of mixing interests on one main account. And what a great start of using this new account than no other talking about traffic signs! I went to Madrid a few days ago and I took those pictures. There are traffic signs with non-official designs, roadworks signs and the new signs from 2025 that are slowly rolling out now. Ask me anything about those pictures, since I'm also designing in SVG the road signs of Spain. I hope everyone is doing great here!
