Fog Blog Ridiculog: Time For 'Stop' To Retire Off The Octagon!
HERE IN CANADA , WE HAVE TO , IN MOST CASES DISPLAY STOP AND ARRET, SOMETIMES YOU MIGHT HAVE ONE OR 2 MORE CROWDING THE SIGN IF THERE IS A NATIVE POPULATION OR SPECIFIC EUROPEAN OR CHINESE LANGUAGE IN AN AREA! THERE COULD BE 4 OR 5 WORDS , IN SOME CASES ON THE RED OCTAGON!........MAYBE ITS TIME THE STOP SIGN WENT THE SAME WAY THE YIELD SIGN WENT. ........THE YIELD SIGN USED TO BE YELLOW WITH THE WORD YIELD INSIDE AND A THIN BLACK OUTLINE ....THEN IT WENT TO THE FAMILIAR RED WITH ABOUT AN INCH IN FROM THE EDGE......A REFLECTIVE STRIP.......AND NO YIELD.. ......NOW THIS IS THE WORLD OVER AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT LANGUAGES TO UNDERSTAND ! WE SHOULD DO THIS TO THE STOP SIGN......GONE WOULD BE THE WORDS AND JUST A THICK REFLECTIVE OUTLINE AND RED OCTAGON! LET;S JUMP INTO THE 21ST CENTURY AND RETIRE ........'STOP' FROM THE FAMILIAR RED OCTAGON!
