Re: [merged] Funny pictures & signs
OK, so it's a real sign.
But how?
How do aircraft enforce a road speed limit?

They are used to track speed and offenders. People can outrun/outdrive cars (particularly on a bike), but a speeder can never outrun a helicopter.

Re: [merged] Funny pictures & signs
The sign on that photo is a photochop, and not a particularly good one.
Look at the angle of the sign, it's facing directly toward the viewer, yet look at the road... the sign would be almost 45 degrees offset to the oncoming driver.. utterly fake.

No, the sign is legit. I have seen several in Florida along the I-4. You can't see it on that photo, but they usual have wide white lines going across the road to help gauge cars' speeds. Furthermore sometimes signs get bent, twisted, moved. The ground is sand, not clay which doesn't help, especially when hurricanes come.

Edit: The Apache in the bushes is a photoshop, but I never said wasn't, only the sign is genuine.

Re: [merged] Funny pictures & signs
lol, the sign being legitimate in reality and being artificially added to that image are not mutually exclusive claims  I was arguing for the latter not the former.
And it definately was added to that image.
