I'd say a big part of it is that drivers already filter out billboards, but those info signs often have important information on them that drivers are expected to read
But if that were the case, there would be no point in putting them up
Other people see the signs than the drivers, a lot of them I think are for kids to nag their parents
Yupers
Not here in Canada! All of our 400-series highways have these signs all over the place.
I was just about to say a comment on the billboards, like wtf how is this legal. So glad that my state has them banned lol
SOUTHERN XPOSURE
60 MILES ON THE RIGHT
All those poor sensory deprived truckers sweating bullets because 150ft billboards are edging them at five mile increments down the highway.
Same vibe:
You know it's possible that it's taken by a passenger.
Or dash cams...
Weird angle for a dash cam. It actually very specifically looks like a phone camera to me with that tinted glass effect.
Rent a billboard just to put the most distracting image possible on it and then watch the traffic reports for that area and see if there is an increase in accidents. 😈
Goatse.
Every time.
Thinking of way back in the day in CS 1.5/1.6 when aimbots worked by searching for a specific color you'd mod the player skins to, someone had a spray to counter them that was a patch of those colors in the middle of the butthole on goatse. Lol
This is fucking diabolical
The context you're missing is that just before it changed to that, it showed hardcore LED matrix porn.
What would that look like? Asking for research purposes.
Woah, that's hot!
You're not my supervisor!
Absolute madlad
Edit: I'm genuinely curious why people are downvoting this, if anyone wants to share?
