California MUTCD, sign R4-7
In short

What does the Keep right sign mean?

Keep to the right of the island or the obstruction.

How regulatory signs work

They give a rule you must obey. They are rectangular unless the manual names another shape (California MUTCD, section 2B.02); the STOP sign, for example, is an octagon (California Driver’s Handbook, “Laws and Rules of the Road”).
