In New Zealand, where traffic is on the left, when a road is given a green light from an all-direction stop, a red arrow can continue to display to turning traffic, holding traffic back while a pedestrian crossing on the side road is given a green signal (for left turns) or while oncoming traffic goes straight ahead and there is no permissive right turn allowed (for right turns).

Stop sign used in Cuba. Road signs in Cuba are very similar to those used in European countries and generally conform to the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals. On September 30, 1977, Cuba acceded to the Convention. Cuba still uses a circular STOP sign, with a triangle inside, which was used in the past in several European countries.

The original MUTCD prohibitory and restrictive signs were text-only (i.e. NO LEFT TURN). [14] Some of these signs continue to be used in the US. Yield signs can be blank or have text with the legend "YIELD" or "GIVE WAY" depending on which country it is. The No Entry / Do Not Enter sign may or may not feature text.
