Is there such a thing in the US?
Yeah.
- Whatever the heck I want, because "ma freedom"
- Police officer’s hand signs
- Traffic lights
- Signs on a pole
- Signs painted on the road

in Europe, we have a hierarchy
This is definitely not true for all of Europe. In Germany, for instance, signs on roads have equal precedence to signs on poles.
MeanEYE@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Lately the trend is for temporary signs to have yellow background instead of white. So if you see road construction you’ll see a yellow background sign.
HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 2 years ago
Orange you sure that construction signs shouldn’t be a different color?
Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Oh, I was always told the yellow signs are suggestions

They really said “fuck that house in particular!”

Gotta jump that roof like a ramp

The guy that owns that white car already fell into this trap and got stuck, said screw it, parked, and just moved into the house.
reverendsteveii@lemm.ee 2 years ago
that’s the sign for “make a new friend in a yellow house with red shingles”
mysoulishome@lemmy.world 2 years ago
It’s a detour…you have to drive through the bush.
vivadanang@lemm.ee 2 years ago
Florida. No other explanation needed.
Decoy321@lemmy.world 2 years ago
For real. It’s not even the dumbest shit I’ve seen today.
Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
I overheard someone in a court house trying to argue with who I assumed was their assigned counsel that it’s totally legal to enter on an off ramp, as long as you’re going in reverse.

Gators?

Hi neighbor … we should really make /c/miami
Decoy321@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I’m surprised it doesn’t already exist. Do you want the honors? I already mod a few groups here, I can easily help with that too.
EpicFailGuy@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Do eet! I don’t have the time to run ANOTHER community

I knew it. I said “I’ve only seen road design this bad in one so-called state.”
EpicFailGuy@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Miami dade exists in it’s own state separate from Florida …
a state of chaos (and it’s constant)
spader312@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I’ll join
user1234@lemmynsfw.com 2 years ago
That’s Miami. Nobody pays attention to street signs anyway.
Decoy321@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Exactly. I assume that’s why they didn’t bother doing the proper signage.
Pa la pinga.

MeanEYE@lemmy.world 2 years ago
That is such a bad road design. So basically if you want to turn left you have to cut through bigger road and leave it immediately.
Early_Insurance_3334@lemmy.ca 2 years ago
You can’t, there’s a do not enter sign on the other side.
Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 2 years ago
Time to levitate. But there’s probably a TFR in effect.
Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Only if GPS tells you to.
willya@lemmyf.uk 2 years ago
Seems the mildly infuriating part is the left out information.
Dozzi92@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Yeah, there’s something left of frame.
Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Probably sasquatch
MeanEYE@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Makes perfect sense to me. Sign on a pole takes precedence over sign on road.
Jerb322@lemmy.world 2 years ago
The Detour sign says that you should go through the ‘Do Not Enter’…
agent_flounder@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Full speed ahead!
roofuskit@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Auditor trap.

This, lades and gentlemen, is the negro ticketing trap.
Kase@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Alright nervous as I am to ask, what does this mean?
_number8_@lemmy.world 2 years ago
many signs should really be treated as suggestions. so many roads here with zero fucking business being 35 here
wander1236@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
I’m pretty sure it’s saying you can’t turn left onto the road to the left of the intersection. Looks like some pretty bad road design.

I’m gonna say it’s easy when the street names are in the photo.

bleistift2@feddit.de 2 years ago
I understand the intent from your graphic, but given the signage, I would not have known what they expected of me.
someguy3@lemmy.ca 2 years ago
The painting on the road should indicate a 45° left instead of 90° left.
Decoy321@lemmy.world 2 years ago
You’re absolutely correct. I just thought it made for a funny photo. It’s very on brand for this city to do dumb shit like this.
tias@discuss.tchncs.de 2 years ago
I’ve been confused and made dangerous choices in traffic for less stupid reasons. Not trying to deflect all blame but considering the lowest common denominator, road construction and signs really need to pay much more attention to the limits of the human brain.
Half of us have an IQ below 100 and we could be driving in darkness, with rain pouring down and facing traffic that shines its headlights into our eyes. The road needs to have an affordance that suggests to the driver how to drive correctly, instead of causing confusion when you already have a lot of traffic to keep track of
takeda@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Bad road design for sure, but the sign still could be better. For example they could make a custom sign, draw the intersection and mark explicitly that you can’t turn to Oakwood.
RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Or just have the sign arrow be more than 90°
