What does the road sign 'Main road' (a yellow diamond on edge) mean?
That the road is a main road and that traffic on crossing roads has a duty to yield to you.
That you must yield to all crossing traffic in upcoming intersections.
That the right-hand rule applies in all intersections on that road.
Explanation
The main road sign indicates that your road is a main road. This means that vehicles on connecting roads have a duty to yield to you. You thus have priority in intersections until the main road ends.
