The SMOKE (NYW7-17) sign may be used, as necessary, to warn of locations where smoke from brush fires or forest fires drifts across the roadway.
The SMOKE sign may be supplemented with an Advisory Speed plaque where appropriate. Where smoke drifts intermittently across the road for a distance of 1000 feet or more, the SMOKE sign may be supplemented with a Distance plaque.
Guidance
The SMOKE sign should be removed as soon as the smoke is no longer present.
Where the SMOKE sign is supplemented with both a Distance plaque and an Advisory Speed plaque, the Distance plaque should be placed above the Advisory Speed plaque.
