You’ve probably seen a few signs that identify where major road routes are, but are so cluttered, that choosing which way to go is like deciding whether you should choose the red or blue wire to defuse a bomb. And for some reason, they’re usually the ones that point out directions.
Some signs are hard to read not because of what’s written on them, but how they’re arranged. With that said, it’s worth laughing at a few ridiculous signs. It’s too bad you can’t go around removing these signs, but there are ways around a confusing sign – you don’t have to spend your time trying to decipher them as if they’re morse code. In fact, you may have your own stories revolving around a traffic sign that left you puzzled, derisive or annoyed. Ideally, a sign is supposed to clarify a condition of the road, whether it is to alert you of a sharp turn, a construction zone, or stray wildlife that may cross your path.īut some road signs cloud judgment instead of giving a clear picture. Motorists often confuse you (whether they’re in cars or bicycles), dashboard symbols sometimes distract you, and poor road infrastructure may mislead you. Driving is not always a straightforward task.
