Road signs in Romania

Road signs in Romania are regulated in Regulation for the implementation of the Emergency Ordinance on traffic on public roads (Romanian: Regulamentul de aplicare a Ordonanţei de urgenţă privind circulaţia pe drumurile publice).^[1]

The shape and design of Romanian road signs largely follows that used in other European countries. Romania is a signatory to the 1968 Vienna Convention of Road Signs and Signals and the 1971 European Agreement supplementing it.^[2] Romania signed the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals on November 8, 1968 and ratified it on December 9, 1980.^[3]
