01Traffic Rules and Road Signs
Armenian traffic rules follow the Vienna Convention structure, so signs are grouped by shape and colour, and questions often test whether you recognise the category before the specific meaning. Priority signs (the red-bordered triangle "give way" and the inverted triangle), prohibitory signs (red circles), mandatory signs (blue circles), warning signs (triangles), and information signs (blue/green rectangles) all carry meaning through form alone.

Road markings in Armenia reinforce signs and signals, and exam questions often test the interaction between a marking and a traffic light or a sign. Learn the marking families: longitudinal lines (solid, broken, double), transverse lines (stop line, give-way line), and special markings (arrows, zebra crossings, yellow boxes, hatched areas).
