Do Not II
This achieves the maximum ***** 5 stars SSR (Stupid Signs Rating).
1. Why would anyone remove the chains?
2. Why are they called safety chains? It's unlikely they would stop anyone, especially a child, falling in.
3. If anyone is inclined to risk life and limb by jumping in, is the threat of prosecution likely to deter them?
4. If you do jump in, and then obey the no swimming rule, you will drown.
This sign is almost useless. I say "almost" because at least it serves as an effective barrier against anyone falling into the water at this exact point.
