It's The Orange-Warning family....Mom, Dad their family of 17 children (3 of them teen-agers), and a baby sitter. A really groovy group if you ask me!
Hoboken, New Jersey is really serious about their anti-drug campaign for pets. Enough to put up this sign wherever they might attempt to purchase drugs. Though I don't know about the scare tactics about letting a dog getting wasted and what might happen.
By the way, if you check out my favorites, someone used this joke about six months ago, but I couldn't help but recycle it because I took the picture before I knew about it.
A sign at a bus stop warning that there is a pot-hole ahead and that when departing from the bus stop bus drivers should take evasive action
This warning sign lets you know that you're about to pass under a giant concrete structure that is wired with live explosives. These are common on both sides of the DMZ. The basic idea is that, if there's an invasion, they blow up these giant structures to block tanks and other vehicles from using the roadway. It's also common to see these giant stone/concrete pillars occasionally along the road, which can be tipped over to achieve the same effect.

Turin passt so gar nicht zu der Vorstellung, die man üblicherweise von einer Autostadt hat. Zwar befindet sich dort der Stammsitz von Fiat, aber die Stadt ist bis heute ein einzigartiges Beispiel absolutistisch geprägter Stadtarchitektur. Anstelle des mittelalterlichen Stadtgefüges wurde durch die Savoyer ab dem 17. Jh. in einer beispiellosen Bautätigkeit eine am Reißbrett geplante Barockstadt als Gesamtkunstwerk aus dem Boden gestampft mit einem rechtwinkligem Straßenraster, ausgehend von dem Schloss der Savoyer an der Piazza Castello. In diesem eleganten Ensemble kann man selbst bei schlechtem Wetter unter 18 km Arkadengängen angenehm flanieren, zumal viele Straßen im Zentrum und vor allem die schönen Plätze seit einigen Jahren autofrei oder zumindest verkehrsberuhigt sind.
Signs line most of the rivers and waterways of northern Queensland as salt water crocodiles can be treacherous and often unseen until too late.
The road signs warning you of kangaroos is pretty common in Australia. This elderly people warning sign not so much. Pretty funny I must say...

Even the warning signs are done in pink. Cigarettes I know. Funny Cigarettes? Do they mean electronic cigarettes, or the more traditional "wacky ta-backy"? In other words, grass? But vaporizers? What do they mean? You can't treat yourself for an asthma attack in the park? Or are they different vaporizers, like the put-your-phasers-on-stun-and-not-vaporize?

Well this is just about the most shot up sign ever seen here in Montana. Seen on the Toston Dam road.
Warning sign at Souter foghorn near Sunderland. Makes me want to hear it just to find out how loud it is from close by. Does it beat standing next to the Orchestral Trumpet pipes on the organ in St Thomas's Church, Haymarket, Newcastle? (120dB) It also raises the question, if they were to give prior warning, how loud would the prior warning have to be? And, if that warning note was frighteningly loud, would it then itself need a prior warning?
Apparently at one time the lighthouse keepers were paid "noisy money" as compensation for enduring the regular blasts when the foghorn was in action.
