Re: Silly road signs




:Back in 1989, I drove into Pennsylvania from Ohio and one sign said,
:"Speed Limit is still 55 mph" and not much further down the road,
:another sign said, "RADAR is used for your Protection" along with
:the fines for exceeding 55 mph. I think the fine for 56-60 mph was
:$72. 

yea, I drive past the "still 55" sign at the DE border every day.
Big bold "rub it in their face" kind of sign.  Anyway
immediately after the limit was raised someone very neatly
blacked out the "55". (beat me to it, I was gonna put "*NOT*" :-)
Its been a good 6 months I think and the graffitied up sign still
stands..
The odd thing is the limit IS still 55 on I95, but there are
now no signs telling you so...
