What does a sign with a picture of a person with a flag indicate?

  1. School zone ahead.

  2. Construction zone ahead.

  3. Traffic control person ahead.

  4. No pedestrian crossing.

The correct answer is: Traffic control person ahead.

A sign with a person holding a flag usually indicates the presence of a traffic control person ahead. This sign is commonly used in construction zones where a person is directing traffic and controlling the flow of vehicles. Option A is incorrect because a school zone sign usually has a picture of a school building or a school crossing sign. Option B is incorrect because a construction zone sign typically has a picture of a construction worker or heavy machinery. Option D is incorrect because a sign for no pedestrian crossing usually has a picture of a person with a line crossing them out. Therefore, option C is the most likely and correct answer based on the given information.
