Concealed driveway: what it means

What it means

One or more concealed (hidden) driveways enter your road from the left or right. You cannot easily see the driveway or the traffic travelling on it.

What you must do

Slow down so that you can stop or yield (give way) if cross traffic does not yield at the intersection.

Where you see it

On any public road.

Remember

If you cannot see them, they may not see you.

A driver who joins your road from a concealed driveway sometimes also finds it difficult to see you.
