Unusual *real-world* road signs?

[dieselraver]

i love this thread. i wish i got a picture of it but in NYS if you're on the Hutchinson River Parkway going to the Whitestone bridge they always have one of those electronic mobile boards that says

"All High Vehicles must exit here"

always get a chuckle out of it

When a friend and I were in high school, we'd road-trip from WI to CO for spring break.
This sign is for a town in Nebraska, and as hormone-charged teenagers, you know where our minds went (insert lots of Beavis and Butthead laughing here).

I love that its in San Clemente and not near the border

[Kar98]

Where is this from? Is this common to have bilingual signs overthere?

German at the bottom and... Czech at the top, I assume?

Uwaga is Polish for "attention", and there's cars with Polish plates in the background. So Immina guess a town right on the eastern side of the Oder-Neisse line, which is called Poland these days.

Some interesting ones from near the outer banks in NC.

that's kind of mean... are they walking to the cemetery??

reminds me of a senior home I saw in Scottsdale, AZ which was directly across the road from a cemetery. Poor old folks would look out the window and see their days numbered.

Slow children at play! I think the little character should be wearing a helmet.

North Vancouver also has rhinoceros- and elephant-shaped deer.

Does this mean to watch out for gay ducks?

[PJA]

I always thought the intersection of of Gay and Church here in Nashville was pretty funny.



I like these bear crossing signs I saw in the Southern Tier New York last month.

These are always creepy in Poland. It translates to "black point". The sign shows how many people have died or been severly injured on that stretch of road.

Like this point - 14 dead, 76 injured.

You see them all over the place, and the way people drive it's no surprise.

It's hard to speed hump them with that helmet on though.

I find it unusual every time I drive past it...

That place has some interesting history.

The Zzyzx strret sign made me remember how badly I wanted one of these for my bike back in the 90's.
