Road traffic accidents remain a significant public health concern globally, causing a staggering number of fatalities and injuries annually. Our study delves into the knowledge and perceptions of traffic signs among bus drivers in Bangladesh, a country witnessing a notable surge in economic growth and urbanization, leading to increased motorization and road accidents. The research examines the level of traffic sign knowledge and perceptions among 300 licensed bus drivers using a cross-sectional survey approach. The results provide insights regarding the driver's understanding and shed light on key factors contributing to comprehension levels, including age, education, and training.
