Mostly is ticks me off that a contractor has such disregard for the traveling public that he would leave incorrect signage in place for nearly 10 days. How much effort is required to lay four signs face down on the ground.
I can add that I have experience and knowledge that a large percentage of accidents in construction zones are the result of improper of unclear directional signage.
Warren, thank you for the heads up. Disregard the naysayers. I don't
travel that way very often, but I will lay the signs over if I see then.
I have investigated too many crashes in work zones, to take the signage
lightly. I don't understand the Sheriff's position on this. Did you talk to
Lt. Wolfe personally?
