Classic Military Vehicle Sign LARGE (600mm X 600mm) *Price incl. VAT (20%)*

“Better safety for military vehicles that are designed to blend in”

Dawes Highway Safety Ltd are the UK manufacturer of signs that clearly and politely remind fellow road users of the hazardous nature of vintage military vehicles. They increase the visible footprint of parked or moving camouflaged vehicles and reduce the chance of road collisions.

Most classic military vehicles are not only camouflaged, reducing their visibility on roads, but often suffer from reduced lights, outdated clutch and braking systems and are often not as fast as modern vehicles on the road. This results in increased road-risk.

Fixed to the rear of vehicle, the warning signs are made of heavy-duty aluminium composite board with rubberised edges then laminated and sealed so they are also watertight. Polite messages remind other road users of the danger presented including ‘Thank you for your patience’ and a reflective side stating ‘Alert! Vehicle Stopped. Give Space’.

We found that immediately, the signs were effective at reminding fellow road users to be cautious around military vehicles while in transit. The behaviour of other drivers in the vicinity of our trialled vehicles transformed enormously – “people don’t honk or travel as closely anymore, they also give sufficient waiting distances and don’t try to overtake in an erratic manner“.
