Road signs in Mexico
The road signs used in Mexico are regulated by Secretaría de Comunicaciones y Transportes's Directorate-General for Roads (Dirección General de Carreteras), and uniformized under a NOM standard[1] and the Manual de Dispositivos para el Control del Tránsito en Calles y Carreteras. The signs share many similarities with those used in the United States and Canada, a reflection of the MUTCD influence in the region.
