Traffic cones are bright, usually orange, conical-shaped markers used to direct and manage traffic. They are commonly placed on roads, construction sites, and during events to indicate hazards, detours, or restricted areas. Their high visibility helps ensure safety for both drivers and pedestrians. Made from materials like plastic or rubber, traffic cones are lightweight and easy to move. Some cones have reflective strips to enhance visibility at night. They are often used in conjunction with other safety devices, such as road signs and barricades, to create a clear and safe environment for everyone on the road.
