Road signs in Botswana are based on the SADC Road Traffic Signs Manual,[1] [2] [3] a document designed to harmonise traffic signs in member states of the Southern Africa Development Community.
A white background signifies the sign is permanent, while a yellow background signifies that the sign is temporary. Warning signs are an upwards-pointing red triangle and black pictogram describing the danger or obstruction. Speed limit signs are a red circle with the limitation in black. Botswana drives on the left.
