Several days ago, I went on a road trip to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Along the way on the day driving there, we stopped at a Cracker Barrel in Macon, Georgia for breakfast. It was the Cracker Barrel off of the Arkwright Rd. exit (TO: US 23 and GA 87) - I-75's Exit 169. When we were both pulling into, then pulling out of, the Cracker Barrel parking lot, I noticed a warning sign, of which kind I don't vividly remember noticing or knowing about before. The pictures above were taken looking at US 23/GA SR 87 Southbound towards the exit.
I do apologize for my ignorance, but what exactly does this warning sign mean? The only conclusion I can come to is that there are 35 driveways at some point on the right side of the road, but I am not too sure if that is correct, and the sign is still puzzling me a good bit. It looks like the generic sign signifying that up ahead is an intersection with an actual road that goes to the right (but ends at the road being driven on), but with an encircled 35 and a banner that says "DRIVEWAYS" slapped on it. Once again, I apologize if this is common knowledge, and I am just an idiot, but I have been pondering this question ever since I saw the sign last week.
:hmmm: :hmm: :-D
An intersection to the right with an advisory speed of 35 for through traffic and there are driveways present. It should not be circled as the pre-2009 MUTCD says that is meant for metric signage.

Oh okay, thanks for the information! I don't know how I did not know that. I wonder why the 35 was circled. Maybe it was the circle that was throwing me off more than anything. :rofl:
These warning signs with advisory speeds inside the main sign aren't common in Georgia yet, but I've seen a couple, such as this one on GA 140 near Canton. I believe this is a correct version, with no circle around the number.
