Option:

04G The NO ALL TERRAIN VEHICLES (NYR5-27) sign (see Sign Drawing SD-R8) may be used where it is desirable to emphasize that all-terrain vehicles are prohibited from using a highway.

Support:

04H Section 2403 of the New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law prohibits, with some exceptions, the operation of all-terrain vehicles on highways.

Guidance:

05A If used on a freeway or expressway ramp, a sign related to pedestrians, bicyclists or equestrians should be installed in a location where it is clearly visible to any pedestrian, bicyclist or equestrian attempting to enter the limited access facility from a street intersecting the exit ramp.

05B A Selective Exclusion sign should be placed on the right-hand side of the roadway at an appropriate distance from the intersection so as to be clearly visible to all road users turning into the roadway that has the exclusion. The No Pedestrians (R9-3) sign should be installed so as to be clearly visible to pedestrians who are at a location where an alternative route is available.

05C Additional NYR5-12 signs should be placed immediately beyond intersections where prohibited vehicles could enter, and at other suitable locations, as necessary, within the exclusion. At grade-separated intersections, the sign should be placed at, or near, the beginning of each entrance ramp to the restricted facility.
