Traffic cones are obstacles in the Mario Kart series. They primarily appear on standard roads, and are knocked away when driven over.
Traffic cones first appear in Mario Kart Wii along the curbsides in certain parts of Daisy Circuit. They reappear in Mario Kart 7 near the underpass in Toad Circuit, along the curb in Wuhu Loop and Maka Wuhu, and at the slope of the mountain in Rock Rock Mountain.
Traffic cones are slightly more common in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, appearing below the multicolored tarps in Toad Harbor, along the catwalk leading to the hydroelectric dam in Mount Wario, and in front of oil slicks in GBA Mario Circuit; additionally, ice cream cones and seashells which function in the same way as traffic cones appear in Sweet Sweet Canyon after the Glide Ramp and before the underwater section and the beach section of Animal Crossing, respectively.
Traffic cones appear again in Mario Kart Tour, where they are much more numerous and appear in many more courses, though primarily in R variants and bonus challenges. There are also four badges that the player could collect as part of the 2019 Halloween, 2019 Paris, 2020 Exploration, and 2nd Anniversary Tours for knocking down five traffic cones.
Traffic cones return in the Mario Kart game for the Nintendo Switch 2 as standard curbside objects. There also appear to be creatures resembling Biddybuds hiding underneath traffic cones.
