Having seen hundreds of tractor trailers parked along "NO PARKING" zone's of highway off ramps, I see the point. And yes, I have a Class A license, don't talk to me about hours of service breaks, you learn to read a fucking clock and pull over to a gas station when you've got 30 minutes to go. You schedule your overnight 10-hour break, you don't dump the truck on the side of the highway and throw the flasher's on. Look at it this way... Someone in the DOT didn't wake up one morning and decide to spend thousands of tax dollars putting up a bajillion no-parking signs. THERE'S A REASON THEY HAD TO PUT THEM UP.
I don't think so. I think he's a professional driver who plays by the rules and is tired of the drivers who don't, knowing the ones who don't are the reason many of the ridiculous rules that he has to live by had to be written.
Signed- A professional driver who drove when there weren't very many rules, back when it was more safe on the road than it is now.
Years ago, people in my neighborhood requested a slow children at play sign. After several thousand dollars of “research “ it was declared that they didn’t have a couple thousand to install one. But would if we agreed to pay the cost. So exactly HOW MUCH did that cost?
I believe those are duel purpose signs, no parking and no peeing...
ReplyDeleteA fine use for your tax dollars.

Looks like I95 down by Daytona Beach right after the rest area
ReplyDeleteThose sighns don't deter the phantom parkers. In fact you can spot several in the photo if you have the correct glasses on.
ReplyDeleteShot from a Cayenne.
ReplyDeleteSomebody's brother-in-law had the sign painting concession.
ReplyDeleteCorrect!
DeleteI can't help but feel that the contractor's brother-in-law was somehow involved in this.
ReplyDeleteLooks like I-75 N in Florida, just north of Payne’s Prairie and just south of Gainesville.
ReplyDeleteI have to get a sturdier desk chair. I swear you almost toppled me with that headline, AGAIN, Kenny. LOL
ReplyDeleteJust passed this on i95 this past Sunday. Easily 100 of them for one one ramp. What a waste of $
