Haha brings back memories. Have seen some shockers, like stop being written the wrong way...reading POTS. As well as a power pole placed in the middle of the road.
Only in Africa

As for a more local example, I like this one in the NT warning others to slow down

Errrrr, it's a KUDU, not a springbok - but it's the idea that counts :)

I have a photo of an almost identical one (also on a rusty drum) on the road between Mt Isa and Winton, in 1964, before it was sealed. Unfortunately it is on a slide, and even if I could find it, I don't have a slide scanner. Slight difference in wording - said "LIFT IM FOOT" - and it was a good idea to do so - it was followed by a fairly blind bend and a single lane grid, usually with a deep hole before and after.

JohnPhotoshop is such a wonderful program. It can create so many "real life" humorus images where there were none.
