CAUTION
* by Ralph Otto
Eighth Place

Living in San Diego (which is right on the border of the United States and Mexico) I always loved these freeway signs - designed to warn motorists traveling at high speed!

The people on the sign are hysterically funny! It looks like their being sucked into the direction of the car causing the adults to stumble, and the poor child is just flailing in the wind!!! LMAO! ~ Lonnit

Thanks everyone! Earl was giving me crap on this one - in order to steady the camera for the slow shutter speed (I did not have my tripod with me) I wedged my "L" lens between the window and inside door frame with the electric window while parked on the side of the freeway! I really didn't think any of them would have come out. I was surprised.
