So the government often calls on service providers or ship operators to prioritize safe, comfortable and safe shipping, one of which is by complying with river traffic signs, this is in line with the government mandate contained in Government Regulation No. 5 of 2010 concerning Navigations in article 54 Paragraphs 1 and 2, as well as Ministerial Regulation No. 52 of 2012 concerning Shipping Lanes in Article 87 Paragraphs 1 and 2.This study aims to determine and describe the current condition of the function of river traffic signs on the 16 ilir (Palembang)-Banyuasin route; (2) Analyze the level of understanding and obedience of riverboath operators with the function of river traffic signs. Analysis of the level of understanding and obedience of vessel operators with the function of river traffic signs is based on the results of filling out a questionnaire containing a number of questions that pre- sent the level of understanding of the function of the signs and a number of questions described from 3 (three) dimensions of the level of compliance based on the theory of Blass (1999). The results of the analysis show: (1) The condition and function of river traffic signs on the 16 ilir (Palembang)-Banyuasin route currently dominated by 42 signs or 72%, with good condition (clear signs, upright poles) by 59% and sufficient condition (clear sign leaves, sloping poles) by 7% and poor by 8% (missing/damaged sign leaves, sloping poles); (2) Based on 2 (two) dimensions, namely Recalling and Interpreting, it can be concluded that the level of understand- ing of boat operators of river traffic signs on the 16 ilir track on average can recognize images and can describe back but can only explain some of the functions and descriptions on the des- ignated signs, this is high level of understanding with a value of 62%; (3) The average level of compliance of riverboat operators with river traffic signs on the 16 Ilir track is 62%, this value is the “High obedience Level” category (60%-79.99%) with the criteria that boat operators can explain the function of prohibited signs and mandatory signs and often carry out / follow orders according to these signs.
