Sign error makes drivers do doubletake

A traffic sign near a preschool has some drivers asking questions.

As a driver isn't it our job to obey all posted street signs, but how do you do that with this one, privately posted in front of a preschool, "please slow drively?" It has caused some perplexed reactions.

"It looks like they might have done it on purpose. Is it funny? Yes, it's funny," one man said.

"With people these days, I'm pretty sure it was done on purpose," a woman said.

LOL! The Wheeling Island exit of I-70 in West Virginia (installed as an afterthought after Exit 1 was already established onshore) was for many years designated as “Exit 0”

I-10 at the Texas-New Mexico border has an Exit 0. It is actually at, or really close to, mile zero.

I used to have Deram.

Those who have never heard it from one of the original pressings, played on a good system might not know what they're missing. There was a depth, a richness which didn't quite make it into the remixes, much less the digitized made from the remixes. It is difficult to describe, one of those 'you had to have been there' things, perhaps as the difference between really good photography, or seeing a thing in real life, directly.

I blew the whistle when some “public servants” installed all four signs at a four-way Stop BACKWARDS (i.e. you were looking at bare galvanized metal from all directions).

Probably the same crew that set this up:

Wild-eyed guess: That camera is turned off, and the pointing system has “homed”.

That sign could be construed as an invitation to pedophiles. Hopefully they know better.

I always thought the wording was weird.

I didn't know they did that. It's more comforting to think that NOBODY could be THAT stupid.

Good for a swipe at the security freaks though.
