I am yellow or orange, but never cowardly. My artwork conveys internally to almost any language. I am the conveyer of an important message. A message that might save your life. I am not looked at by many when I am all alone. Many times, I can be forgotten or left unattended. The more distractions around me the more chances are that you will not see me or perceive my message. I am a Slip, Trip, and Fall Sign!
My human interaction is extremely important. Especially to those who cannot or struggle with their vision. Guide/Service Dogs will lead people around me, past me, or nearby me, but I have never heard a dog tell its human why I am posted. I am a Slip, Trip, and Fall sign!
I am afraid when I am by myself, I get lonely if left alone, I must always have a human companion and others of my kind around me to inform people properly of my message. If you see me alone, I should not be, see something, say something applies here. Tell my managers that I am all alone and that I need my human companion to be nearby instructing, directing, and removing the hazard I am warning you about. Or tell my manager I am not needed and to put me away until I am. What am I? I am a Slip, Trip, and Fall Sign!
