Draft:Comparison of traffic signs in countries of the Arab world

This is a comparison of road signs in countries of the Arab world including partially recognized Palestinian territories. These countries speak majorly Arabic, including major ones where it is an official language and widely understood (and as a lingua franca).

Although most countries of the Arab world are not signatories to the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals, road signs in Arabic-speaking countries generally use the same pattern of colors, shapes, and symbols as set out in this convention, which is also used in most European countries.

Road signs in Palestine are the same as those used in Israel, given that Israel's internationally recognized borders include the Palestinian territories.

All countries of the Arab world drive on the right, as in the rest of Asia (except for some South Asian, Southeast Asian, and East Asian nations that drive on the left) and Africa (except for some East African and Southern African nations that drive on the left, most of them are former British colonies). Each of these countries also use metric system; thus speed limits are in kilometres per hour, and distances are in kilometres or metres. In Algeria, Jordan, Oman, Qatar, Tunisia and the UAE, there are combined worlds KAF and STOP. In Palestine, there is not word STOP, but is it raised hand.
