| Romania's Fix to Alcohol-Fueled Accidents? Drunk X-ing Signs |
| 2010-03-10 |
| Road signs warning drivers that intoxicated people may be in the road have been put up as Romania tries to reduce the number of accidents. The signs read "Attention — Drunks" and show a reveller crawling along with a bottle in his hand. Petru Antal, the Mayor of Pecica in Romania said his town had a vibrant nightlife. "We are a border town and have lots of cars thundering through here all the time," he said. "But we also have a very vibrant nightlife and the two don't mix. We have to target the drivers because by the time they get to this state the pedestrians are beyond caring." |

| #2 The crosswalk would only be 1 line perp. to the road? Reminds me of the joke of the city driver out in the country upset at hitting the deer b/c the deer didn't cross at the sign. |
