50 Dumbest Street Signs.

What where they thinking when they made some of these signs?

Those were funny.

Teehee! The one about retrieving items thrown at crocodiles was particularly amusing to me.

One the favorite I've personally seen was a sign in a Sacramento residential neighborhood warning of a speedbump:

Hump
Ahead

That must be god's gift to the area adolescents.

Some of those are real.....many of them have the hallmarks of Photoshop jobs. Fun stuff though.

Awww. They left out my favorite. When leaving Lake Isabella, heading back towards Bakersfield (on hwy 178) and approaching the mouth of the Kern Canyon there is a caution sign. At first glance it appears to be rocks falling on a car below, until you notice that one of the rocks is a cow (and yes, cattle have been known to fall on the highway, and every time it rains there is a rock slide).

My favorite (not a street sign, per se) has always been the reputed sign, somewhere in England, in the midst of a grassy meadow far from human settlement of any kind, which reads "Please do not throw stones at this sign."
