Driving home tonight on I-95 i drive past a small sign that read "Correctional Facility Area. . . . DO NOT STOP!!!.....

I want do bad to stop but it was almost one am and that seem like not such a smart decision but ill try to get a pic in the future.
There's one on 395 near a correctional facility that says DON'T PICK UP HITCHHIKERS.

ETA: It is in Eastern Washington, north of Tri-Cities.

I wouldn't normally, but near a prison, I'm even less likely.

I'm going to guess it's by the state penn. in Walla Walla? Yes, if you see the Green River Killer hitching, please do not give him a ride.

When you drive through the Siskiyou Mountains in southern Oregon/northern California, you pass through the town of Weed:

Nope, north of Tri Cities on the way to Spokane, closer to Connell.

This is on a dog walk trail, but still a good one:


and please don't over the rhinocerous crossing the road:




And this sign encourages kids to not skate in the immediate area, but instead, to take their skateboards & noise to the nearby skatepark at Parkgate, so that everyone is happy:

While driving through Colorado last summer and approaching Denver, DolphinChicaDDD and I saw tons of those "CORRECTIONAL FACILITY AHEAD - Do Not Pick Up Hitchhikers" signs.

Anyway, here's my contribution:

In Pennsylvania, we have the highway signs that say "Speed enforced by aircraft". While in New Jersey, they just have "Speed enforced by patrol car". Hahaha!!
