The signs come in different shapes so that you can easily identify them. Triangle for example you know by the shape that its a yellow caution sign.

Triangles mean hazard warning.

There are not only triangular ones. Triangles indicate attention, circles prohibition and squares obligation.

Triangles give a warning, circles give an order.
