 Ahhh.. but there are things like this... for instance, here in
 Virginia, the Interstate signs are all shields with Red and blue
 background with white letters,  Routes are black and white sheilds
 with black letters... it ain't so bad here...

 Steep grade looks like a truck going down a hill, Deer ahead looks
 like a jumping buck, Pedestrian Target zone looks like a mommy with
 her purse and a female child ( sexisim? mabey.. ) 

 What I hate is playing "find the street sign" sometimes it is on the
 cross wire/bar, sometimes it is on the corner, sometimes the opposite
 corner... etc...
