They are referred to as "diamond-shaped". Geometrically, however, most US traffic warning signs are actually squares that have been rotated 45 degrees from horizontal, rather than diamonds, which have no right angles.

Many warning signs are also rectangular, such as a yellow sign with a black arrow indicating which way the road goes, or a black chevron indicating a curve.
