## Question
In a location where there is a "Sound Horn" sign, you must sound your horn, but this is classified as a regulatory sign rather than an indication sign.

## Correct answer
True

## Explanation
"Sound Horn" is a regulatory sign. Regulatory signs prohibit or restrict certain ways of using the road, or order road users to follow a set method; because this sign orders you to sound your horn, it is a regulatory sign. The statement is therefore correct.
