The irony of this sign being photographed on a cellphone while driving takes this to the next level.

Unethical tip so you don’t get blasted on social media: Hold your phone out so it looks like it was taken by a passenger.
Could not the passenger be taking the picture? Not the driver?

“Who you’re gonna call?”
Mate, I already on the phone with my parents when I saw that. They’re pretty good at busting ghosts, though.
The one legitimate use for imsi-catchers.
spiting road signs telling me what to do by taking pictures of them
Don’t cross the streets.
Average TXDOT sign.
“Gobble gobble go easy on the throttle” is still my all-time fave.
