caution sign
Danger ahead notice
A caution sign is a notice warning of potential hazards or dangers ahead.
Yellow caution signs alert drivers to curves, pedestrian crossings, or slippery conditions.
In workplaces, they mark wet floors or dangerous equipment: Someone had knocked over the caution sign, and I slipped on the wet tile.
The phrase sometimes extends figuratively to any warning signal: His evasive answers were a caution sign.
