What are explicit and implicit signals?

Answer:
An explicit signal is stated directly while an implicit signal is implied by inference. Barricades and "Bridge Out" signs set up to prevent access to a washed away bridge would be an explicit signal. Seeing fast moving water covering the floor of the bridge would suggest that drag racing across it might wait.
