Thanks to Ailsa for proposing ‘Signs’ as a theme. She found some signs giving pretty direct commands: ‘be kind’, ‘be polite’: http://wheresmybackpack.com/2012/08/10/signs/
This week I photographed a sign that is also unambiguous. I was tutoring a student who had to make a brochure to educate drivers on the combination of alcohol and driving. We talked about ways of preventing people from driving after drinking, and I thought of this sign on one of the freeways in our city and wondered if it’s successful in preventing accidents. I don’t drink alcohol, so I giggle darkly at this sign and its unsubtle message and try to imagine its writer. But I’d be interested to know what effect it has on drink-drivers.
