Interesting Street Sign


I spotted this sign while walking down the street, and later discovered it was just what I had imagined it was. An accident had taken place at that location, on that date, and this sign was asking anyone who had witnessed it to please call the number and give their information to the police.

One woman told me that she was familiar with that accident; in fact, a young woman had stepped off the curb and had been hit by a bus.

Apparently, signs like this are common around town. Another woman mentioned that she was parking her car on a street at 4:30pm one day. When she got out of the car, she saw a sign similar to this one that announced there had been a sexual assault at that location the previous day at 4:45pm. She looked at her watch and seriously considered getting in the car and parking somewhere else instead.
