Signs like this recently got banned in the US iirc.

"Top distracting" for drivers

But all those billboards are fine

[-] aidan@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

I'd say a big part of it is that drivers already filter out billboards, but those info signs often have important information on them that drivers are expected to read

But if that were the case, there would be no point in putting them up

[-] aidan@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Other people see the signs than the drivers, a lot of them I think are for kids to nag their parents

Not here in Canada! All of our 400-series highways have these signs all over the place.

SOUTHERN XPOSURE

60 MILES ON THE RIGHT

All those poor sensory deprived truckers sweating bullets because 150ft billboards are edging them at five mile increments down the highway.

You know it's possible that it's taken by a passenger.

Weird angle for a dash cam. It actually very specifically looks like a phone camera to me with that tinted glass effect.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 23 points 1 month ago

Rent a billboard just to put the most distracting image possible on it and then watch the traffic reports for that area and see if there is an increase in accidents. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

Thinking of way back in the day in CS 1.5/1.6 when aimbots worked by searching for a specific color you'd mod the player skins to, someone had a spray to counter them that was a patch of those colors in the middle of the butthole on goatse. Lol

This is fucking diabolical

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

The context you're missing is that just before it changed to that, it showed hardcore LED matrix porn.

[-] Dadifer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

What would that look like? Asking for research purposes.
