What does a sign with a picture of a person holding a flag and the word "SLOW" indicate?

  1. School zone ahead.

  2. Construction zone ahead.

  3. Stop sign ahead.

  4. Traffic control person ahead.

The correct answer is: Construction zone ahead.

A sign with a picture of a person holding a flag and the word "SLOW" indicates a construction zone ahead. This sign is commonly used to warn drivers to reduce their speed and be cautious because of workers, heavy equipment, or road construction ahead. Option A is incorrect because a school zone sign usually has a speed limit posted and a symbol of a school or children crossing, not a person holding a flag. Option C is incorrect because a stop sign is a red octagon shape and only has the word "STOP" on it. Option D is also incorrect because a traffic control person ahead would typically have a sign with the word "STOP" and an arrow, not the word "SLOW." In summary, the sign with the person holding a flag and the word "SLOW" specifically indicates a construction zone ahead, not a school, stop, or traffic control person.
