Two Signs

I saw this sign while heading down a narrow road not far from where I grew up:


I thought it was a particularly effective attempt at traffic calming, if you're lacking the infrastructure of rumble strips and roundabouts.

Because I've been on the road for the past few weeks, seeing all of the usual bad behavior that accompanies moving about in a two-ton pile of metal, I thought of an adjunct sign that should be created:


That admonition could be extended to cover quite a lot of the bad behavior that takes place on the interweb as well.
