Keep right
Mandatory signs

Keep right

Pass the sign or obstacle on the right side.

Pass to the right of the sign or obstruction. It is commonly displayed on a traffic island or beside an obstacle in the carriageway.

A common design is a blue circle with a white arrow sloping down to the right. The United States uses R4-7, a white rectangular sign with a black arrow bending around an obstacle symbol.

How it looks in each country

Official sign in each country; the code is its number in the national rules. Signs that come in two directions show the left and the right version.
