Strange Road Sign:  Push Button For.....?

This is a truly perplexing road sign: 'Push Button For'.  What would you get if I pressed that blue button?

Road Advisory Sign

Is help is at hand.  Will the Road Advisory sign will tell us what all these funny road signs mean?  We seriously doubt it.

A Funny Road Sign Message Lost in Translation

How it Got Lost in Translation

The council staff in Swansea, Wales, UK wanted a
translation, so they emailed their translator.  However, he was not
available, so an automatic response was triggered which read in Welsh:

I am out of the office at the moment

Unfortunately the council staff were not Welsh speaking themselves, and
believed that the automated response was the actual translation they
were seeking.  There would be no story if they had the message checked,
but they didn't and another funny road sign resulted.

The error was detected by Golwg, a famous Welsh-language magazine.
Dylan Iorwerth, the managing editor, said: 'We have been running pictures of
this kind over the past few months.  'It's good that people want to have
bilingual signs but, unfortunately, they don't make sure someone with a real
knowledge of Welsh checks the work through all the different stages.'

What's
Going on Here?  Where is the Highway?

Alan Turnham kindly provided the picture - I leave you to think
of a caption.

Lane Closed - Thanks a bunch!

Stupid Traffic Signs - Conditions of entry

What a strange sign - It's a good job we did not want to go there!  Shades
of Groucho Marx saying, 'I would never belong to a club that would have me
as a member'.

Warning - Artillery Firing Over Public Roads

One of the weirdest road signs that we have seen.

No Discharge of a Firearm

This road-side warning makes sense, but it's worrying.

Talent - What we could do more

Worth a detour?  What Will and Guy like about this funny sign is that each
person can imagine what they are going to get when they arrive at 'Talent'.
