The bunny ears gives it the look of being docile.
It is hoping its buddies don't see it like that :cry:

Lack of blood on the gator, unless they lost a finger but decided to clean its teeth afterwards.

You might need to explain that one to me.

The lower one sets a speed limit to ##30 \frac{km}{h}## and the upper one releases the same speed limit, saying the zone where it was valid ended here. I know a street where the lower one is on the right side of the road and the upper exactly at the same place on the left side of the road. And yes, they are both within city limits, so no change of administration at this point.

Edit: We basically use symbols and signs instead of written texts as in the US. Driving in the states has been pretty challenging, because one always had to squint: reading texts every five meters with your right eye, like reading a newspaper, and looking at the tachometer with your left, since speed limits in cities sometimes changed every 200 meters, depending on what kind of building or park there was: 30 - 15 - 45 - 15 - 25 etc. and always several lines of text! What a terrible, terrible way of driving.

It's even more fun at some big interchanges when you're trying to figure out what ramp/exit to take and there are 15 different signs you have to decipher while going 60mph

Two thoughts on this.
  1. Could one of the signs have been turned round by vandals so it is facing the wrong way?
  2. In your country is there any difference between a "30 km/h" limit and a "30 km/h zone"?

Unfortunately not. This wasn't a fake photo. It's simply that some bureaucrats decided to put in a speed limit without
a) ever have seen the actual place other than on street maps, and
b) have therefore no idea what has been set any time earlier. And
c) the guys who installed it simply did what they've been told to do.

Not in the sense that it makes a difference. A "30 zone" is usually merely a short range where schools are, children play, noise should be avoided or such. It's similar to the 15 areas in the states and which are separated from the general 50 restriction within city limits. A limit of 30 which is no a "zone" is often due to bad roads and it's validity depends on the road conditions. The "zone" thingy came up in the 80's (I think) and since then they often end with this "zone" text, especially when it affected housing areas or roads on which children may play.

On this occasion I want to remind of this sign:

Ibix said:
There was a road sign put up, which became famous at least in the UK, which says "No entry for heavy goods vehicles. Residential site only". Being in Wales, the sign is bilingual and says, in Welsh, "I am not in the office at the moment. Send any work to be translated."

Reference: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/7702913.stm.

Or as DeForest Kelley has put it:
"The bureaucratic mentality is the only constant in the universe."

It can be much larger. Often everything apart from the main roads is part of a "30 zone".

The sign combination does have a meaning. If you turn left or right within a "30 zone", then you are still in the 30 zone, and the speed limit is 30. If you turn left or right after a "speed limit 30 sign", you are at a different road where the other speed limit does not apply any more (you can now drive 50). You could simply extend the 30 zone to the next intersection to have the same effect, however.

Another interesting combination is "end of 30 zone" and "drive carefully, school nearby".

All values in km/h, of course.

We've had a week of rain here. Normally, no problem. However, Tuesday night I spotted a car on the side of the road and pulled over immediately. The driver is an RN who specializes in at-home births. If she was out it meant business. I walked back to her car and tapped on the window.

"You okay?"

"NO! This stupid car keeps stalling on me. I can drive for one minute then I have to sit for five until it wills start again."

"No prob. Take my car. I'll take yours to my house and you can return my car and get a ride home. I'll call the garage to come get yours tomorrow."

She thanked me profusely and sped away in my Charger.

As I got into her '67 Camaro and got going it struck me, "Here I am 66 years old and I'm finally driving a midwife crisis car."
