Weird highway warning signs

[OntarioHunter]

When I was a kid we were heading up to the Canadian border for a camping/fishing weekend in our '63 Bel Air Station wagon. The curvy dusty washboard logging road was taking a toll on the car ... and my dad's patience. Suddenly we came on this warning sign.

Me: "What does that sign mean?"
Dad (grumbling): "Road going to hell!"
Mom: "Jack, watch your mouth."
Kids: [giggling]

Not my picture but I’ve seen a few of these and they make me laugh every time.

We get a bunch of these in South Central PA.

I don't have a sign, but I always get a chuckle when someone runs into a guard rail and destroys a section. Then the highway department put traffic cones at that spot. I guess they are telling us that if we just have to run into the guard rail, we need to do it somewhere safer.

I had a Cessna 180 land in front of me in the Talkeetna highway. Engine failure. Airplanes have the right of way in Ak.

Yep. I believe this sign was in Willow. They parked across the road from the lake they landed on.

Have a couple, not road signs, but....

Just tell me what you want.


Should have used blue or red for the graffiti to enhance the colorful portion



I think most people's head will be okay going under this sign.

Bolivia---Stay on the left side of the road. This way the downhill vehicle drives right along the canyon and the uphill vehicle along the vertical wall so that both drivers will have the optimal view of the inches on their side of the road. ( the key word here is the word "inches")

S. Africa---drunken people crossing

Italy--attenzione prostitute

I know the area! Lake hood drive in ANC has a few signs like that too.

It’s funny that the MUTCD standards were updated to include very specific critter crossing signs as opposed to the standard deer and cattle xing signs to denote the presence of either wild animals or livestock.

W11-19 is a donkey and W11-22 is a horse, both unmounted. Whereas W11-7 is a mounted horse.

Same W11 series warning signs also now come in grizzly bear, lamb, bighorn sheep, elk, and moose.

Critter crossing signs reminded me of this gem.

I’ve seen some of these scofflaw animals crossing where there isn’t even a sign!

Country is really going down the tubes, man.
