I got this in an email today, thought you guys would enjoy it. My personal favorite is the sign I keep seeing in Chicago informing motorists to "Obey only your traffic signal." Like you're going to instead mind the signal meant for a lane going the other way?



I liked this one too, seen at an auto rental agency here in Austin last week:

That is so wierd, if the light never turns green, it should flash red or yellow, right?

Heh, that "this light never turns green" sign is (was) located here in Fort Walton Beach. Unfortunately, a few months ago they restructured the intersection in question, so now the light turns green. Originally, you were only allowed to turn right at that light...hence it was always red. Now that's been changed. Sigh...another piece of our heritage gone .

sweet snap of the sign 'feeling lucky'. hope you threw it to rob@ilovebacon.com ! looks like you are snapping bacon bits on the road anywhere and everywhere eh? it pays to keep that camera with you - well, not really, you get bacon bits, but that isn't worth anything but geek points.
