What the Sharp junction ahead sign means
A side road meets your road ahead at a sharp, narrow angle on the right, so it can be hard to see traffic on it.
What you must do
Slow down and look carefully to the right. The sharp angle limits your view into the side road, so check early and be ready to give way to traffic entering or leaving.
