A sign of failure

June 12th, 2015

We use signs every day to advise, warn or deter. They’re important. In some cases, the law depends on them. But how many times have we seen signs that make no sense, or are hopelessly ambiguous? Here’s a small collection of a few I’ve stumbled across recently …

After Midnight

I’d like to see this one tested in a court. It basically allows 24-hour parking, though I suspect that’s not the intention.

 

Do not enter

Pretty obvious really.

 

Ape tit

Requires a refined palate.

 

Shoptlifters

That’s taking it a little far …
