Engstrom / Crash -

Thanks so much! I drive by this corner every day and always thought WTF? So finally stopped and took a pic. Used just a lil flash to make the signs reflect.

guitarbug - thanks! There's actually a fair bit of color in the color version but I thought it took away from the emphasis of the signs.. was just playing around with the saturation level and thought about doing it this way...

There's actually a "No left Turn" sign on TOP of the sign in the middle of the picture (at a 90 degree angle), with a complimentary "No Right Turn" sign facing it on the other side of the street.

SO.. 5 no turn signs all within 20 feet of each other.. boggles the mind.

D.

The wierd thing is that those right turns lead into the parking lot of a shopping center.. so it doesn't make any sense. The left turn at the end of the street leads you the wrong way on the access road to Geo. Bush.. so at least THAT makes sense..

D.

You HAVE to turn at the end of the street.. it T's into the access road....
