What information does a kilometer stone provide to travelers on a road?
Distance from a reference point
A kilometre stone is a roadside marker placed at regular intervals along a highway.
It states how far a location is from a fixed reference point, such as a town or the road's origin, usually shown in kilometres.
It does not indicate the vehicle's direction, speed or the time taken, which are given by other signs or the vehicle's own instruments.
Hence, the answer is Distance from a reference point.
