Warning signs serve to alert drivers to the proximity of a location or road section that presents danger, allowing them to adapt their driving in advance. For this reason, these signs are not placed at the exact location of the danger, but rather at a regulatory distance that generally varies between 150 and 250 meters before the start of the dangerous section. The statement is incorrect because if the sign were placed at the exact location where the crosswind is felt intensely, the driver would not have useful time to foresee the situation and adopt the necessary safety measures, such as reducing speed and firmly holding the steering wheel.
