Whose bright idea was it?

[cheri1122]

To make the larger, heavier, slower vehicles (trucks) yield the right of way to smaller, lighter, faster 4 wheelers, at rest areas?
To mount the tissue holder so low on the bathroom wall that you have to get your forehead on the floor to grab the tissue?
To post the legal blood alcohol limit on signs? What the heck are we supposed to do with the information? (The only time you know for sure what your actual BAC is, it's too late - you're already in trouble!)
To build a truckstop with "more than 100 parking spaces", according to the sign, but just ONE women's bathroom?

What makes you scratch your head, wondering who's bright idea was that?!

Now now Cheri

"To build a truckstop with "more than 100 parking spaces", according to the sign, but just ONE women's bathroom?"

I think there should be something in that statement about just ONE bathroom with 5 stalls for the whole place.

 

[cheri1122]

I don't know about the men's room - but the women's bathroom has just ONE stall!x(

 

[greg334]

No no no, not the mens bathroom, 'the' bathroom.

 

[cheri1122]

Greg, there's one door that says 'Men", and one that says 'Women'. I don't know what's behind the men's room door, but if I have to wait one more time, for someone to apparently take a full bath in the women's room, I'll let you know what I find in the men's room!

 

[cheri1122]

Um, on second thought, no, I won't - if I have to go in, I'm not opening my eyes till I get back out!!:+

 

[riverrat2000]

good thought Cheri, believe me you DON'T want to look in the mens bathroom they are cleaned once a month whether the need it or not and half the so called men that go into them A. don't know what a urinal is and B the ones that don't know what a urinal vis also don't know how to put up a toilet seat.

Another one: the signs at the end of the freeway entrance ramp, saying "No turns"....Unless you were planning to park on the median, exactly where would you turn TO?

I get a kick out of the sign that lets you know the guard rail is damaged. Like ok i'll wait and run into the next one. LOL

Man I think the same thing every time I see those signs.

I can tell you what you won't find in the men's room - a couch.

Sign in the Men`s room in Canada.

"PLEASE DO NOT EAT THE URNIAL CAKES"

(I always knew they were strange up there)

 

[Critter Truckin]

What did you expect from state governments, Cheri? It's not the bathroom at the JC Penney's or Belk's in the mall. Complete with hair studio, manicure parlor, and my favorite, a couch with a SECOND door to the actual bathroom. Meanwhile, the men's room has one door, with the urinal standing right in plain view. Like I want every little kid attached to the soccer mom's belts yelling "HEY, that man is peeing!!!"

Also, fellas, avoid the Stalls in the New York rest areas. I think I found the real reason for the no idling laws in that horrid state. Oh, and the ones in Montana resemble that of a jail cell, stainless crappers and all.

Guard Rail one is always funny. In northern Michigan there are signs the read "do not pass when opposing traffic present". well duh!

 

[Crazynuff]

If I remember correctly this sign is on I-75 near Toledo . "Resume Legal Speed " What are you supposed to be doing before you resume legal speed ? And be VERY careful driving through the I-94 construction in Michigan . Those people don't have a clue what YIELD means and act like you are invisible when they fly off the ramp .

 

[cheri1122]

Crazy, 'Resume legal speed' is a leftover from a construction zone, where the speed limit was temporarily lowered. I'm sure they just forgot to remove it when the construction was finished, as it's always placed about a mile past the 'End construction' signs.

 

[greg334]

Resume legal speed?

I like the ones that say 'end 55 MPH'

 

[Critter Truckin]

My personal favorite is the "Begin Road Work" signs. And then when you get there, there's nothing!!! But they still have the sign 23498230498 miles later that says "End Construction Zone."

Also, the "Speed Zone Ahead" signs are about the dumbest things I've ever seen. Aren't they all speed zones?

 

[cheri1122]

"Aircraft used to control speed" is another good one - it always makes me picture a plane, with a big magnet dangling, ready to latch onto a speeding vehicle, picking it up & out of traffic, lol. :+
Maybe that's not such a bad idea....

 

[pelicn]

I saw a sign that said "Fire Station Left" I kept wondering where it went?
