Visit FAQ Section 📖The Diagram 513 Double Bend or Series of Bends Ahead Sign is a UK road safety warning sign that alerts motorists to an upcoming set of bends or curves in the road, with the first bend veering to the left. This sign is crucial for preventing accidents, ensuring drivers reduce speed, and promoting safe navigation on winding roads.
Sharp or consecutive bends can be hazardous, particularly on rural roads, high-speed roads, and areas with limited visibility. Without proper warning, drivers may:
✔ Approach bends too fast, leading to loss of control.
✔ Misjudge the severity of the curves, increasing accident risks.
✔ Struggle to adjust speed in time, especially in poor weather conditions.
✔ Cross into the opposite lane, posing a collision risk to oncoming traffic.
By installing the Diagram 513 sign, road authorities provide advance notice to motorists, allowing them to adjust speed, maintain control, and safely navigate bends.
The Double Bend or Series of Bends Ahead Sign is commonly placed in areas where road curves could pose a danger to drivers, including:
🛣️ Rural and countryside roads – Where winding roads are common.
🏞️ Hilly and mountainous routes – Where steep gradients and bends require extra caution.
🚗 High-speed roads with sudden curves – To ensure safe speed adjustments.
🚧 Roads near bodies of water or cliffs – To prevent vehicles from veering off course.
🚦 Urban roads with hidden bends – Where buildings or foliage obscure driver vision.
By installing this sign in high-risk areas, road authorities reduce accident rates and improve overall driving safety.
Road bends can be deceptive, particularly for new drivers, tourists, and those unfamiliar with the route. Without proper warning, drivers may:
❌ Enter the bend too fast, causing skidding or rollovers.
❌ Fail to maintain lane discipline, risking head-on collisions.
❌ Lose traction, especially in wet or icy conditions.
The Diagram 513 sign ensures:
✔ Motorists slow down and prepare for multiple bends.
✔ Safer navigation on winding roads, reducing crash risks.
✔ Improved road awareness, particularly in bad weather.
This simple yet highly effective sign improves driver safety, especially in areas where sudden bends pose a challenge.
