If that wouldn't have been on this page when I got here, zen, that is exactly what I was going to post.

A couple of local street signs that have been puzzling me for a while. Neither are new.

The corporate campus where Mrs. Dallas used to work had a speed limit of 12. I asked about it, and apparently the principle is that boring old multiple-of-5 speed limits just slide past people's notice, but an "unusual" number like 12 or 17 will attract their attention and make them more likely to slow down from street speeds.

It makes people slow down, just to keep from rear-ending people taking pictures.

So the reasoning behind the 3 Ls is...? 4-way stop? Unless all the maps have mistakenly "corrected" it to 2 Ls I have googled and searched and as far as I can tell it's not supposed to have 3 Ls but surely i can't be the only one who's ever noticed? it's been there for years!

Probably misspelled, but you never know with proper names, without something to check it against.

When I lived in Emanuel County (briefly) there was a sign at a bridge that said "Bridge ices before road do".

I can't find it by google (what?!!) but I've seen a great road sign in a photo.
There is a dangerous curve on some remote desert track out in Western Australia. After a few spills, someone got a pair of old 44-gallon (not galllon) drums and placed one on each side of the curve. As you approach you see "LIFTEM FOOT". As you exit, you are advised "PUTTEM BACK DOWN".

What the problem? The box is too big to fall on the kid and he's protected from baby snatchers, cheek pinchers and chin chuckers. Oh, and shaded from those blinding overhead lights.

looks like some joker slipped a decimal in that speed sign.

Did you just pick random words out of the dictionary?
