If you come to a road junction and the road and warning signs are covered with snow, you should still realise that it's a give way sign. A stop sign is octagonal, and should still be recognised if that was snowed up too.It's like an American "Yield" sign - it means you give anyone coming from the other way the right of way (you let them go first).

any upside down triangle is a danger or warning signMost signs that give a warning are triangular in shape and have a red border with a white background. Stop signs and Give Way signs are inverted triangles warning of Stop signs and Give Way signs ahead. Other triangular signs are the right way up. Some warning signs also have rectangular plates below them giving further information such as the distance to the Stop sign ahead.

In addition to the above responses, remember that most 'road traffic signs' in the world are 'international' in license and implementation. The United States is moving towards the international signage system.This process, for all takers, literally takes decades to adopt, use and educate.
International road traffic signs are governed by the various "UN Conventions on Road Traffic, Road Signs and Signals", and as such, includes sometimes a signs dimensions, design parameters, placement, and legal-meaning to be adopted by the contracting states party in regulations.
They are generally 'optional' for nations to adopt, but the meanings must remain uniform throughout the world wherever they are posted.
