Confirmation
Where: On the left-hand side of a freeway, about 750 m after you join it, and then every 5 to 10 kilometres.
Purpose: To confirm that you are on the road you intended, and to give the distance in kilometres to the places ahead.
Action Required by Driver: Note the destination and, in particular, the distance. These boards are how you plan the rest of the trip — where to refuel, where to rest, how long is left. Reading them is also the cheapest way to discover you took the wrong on-ramp while it is still easy to correct.
