If you know it is road work, then traffic speed limit goes down (there will be a sign for it), then you also know that you will have to use cation, at the end before all is said and done your not going to kill yourself or anyone just cause you didn't read the words on the sign.

Not to mention you have to pass a road sign portion of the writen driving test. Shape and color make up 95% of what road signs mean. For example take the words off the sign above. I bet you would still know that it is some sort of caution sign. Cause guess what, all caution type signs are yellow and diamond. All road signs are orange. All offical stop signs are red. You get my point. You still do not have to read them to get the jist of them. Not to mention you have to pass a road sign portion of the writen driving test.

The only signs that require any sort of reading in terms of driving are street names. Other then that you have no need to read "Stop" or "Yeld" or Speed Limit". They are standard shapes. As for learning a language it isn't required in this country. It is required in most other countries. It leaves me to feel that to each his own. I have gotten by fine all these years without being overly pissed about anyone ability to speak english or not. You don’t need to read signs to be able to drive.

Luck would have it that 80% of the class was written. It matters to the fact that if they can't read English, then they can't read road signs. Pardon me, but people in Atlanta can't drive as it is, trying adding the fact that someone on the road can't read a sign to merge or slow down, that doesn't bother you? I have been in parts of Houston, TX where the signs are in Korean. I couldn't find my way around. With more than 95% of the road signs in English I find myself trying to read Korean road signs? I was frustrated, I could see how they would feel trying to read English. Did Houston, TX accommodate the culture around that area? Yes, they did. I wasn't mad at the fact that there were Korean road signs, but that there was not any English road signs. What should the US do? Put up road signs in every language in the world, so that no one feels bad? That would cause a great deal of expense, and it would confuse the masses.

Just because they can't read or write it in no way means that they can't speak it. I knew more then one person from the resturant I used to work at that spoke great english but couldn't read or write it. Why does it matter if they can’t read or write english.
