Explanation

Correct answer: Strong side wind gusts.

The A-19 "Side wind" sign is a warning sign that indicates a location where strong, side gusts of wind occur. The driver should be prepared for the vehicle to be suddenly pushed off its course, especially when exiting a forest, from behind a noise barrier, or on a viaduct. You should hold the steering wheel more firmly and correct your course if necessary.
