Unique, Odd, or Interesting Signs aka The good, the bad, and the ugly

Another one, seen in Mexico. Guns aren't allowed and its an automatic slammer for violators!

When guns are outlawed...

*Europe raises an eyebrow*

This sign on New Jersey's Palisades Interstate Parkway is odd.  The text is unusual as well as outdated. The guide was installed in 1987 after the MUTCD eliminated text of route numbers.

Plus the spacing between 9 and W. It's 9W and not 9 W.  Plus the use of RT over US is worth mentioning. Yes the Northeast calls all designations routes and not I, US, or SR so it would seem the norm, but it's not normal highway signing

Another one is added to the list of Unique signs
Cary exits sign on I-40 near Exit 293.

Anyone heard of this sign that means 110 miles till next stop? On I-70 in Salina UT

Duck crossing at the Duck pond in Webster Pond, Syracuse, NY

On the left side of this sign, there is a very ugly sign that says TO I-440. This is at a McDonald's Parking Lot on Lake Boone Trail. This was taken pre COVID and before THIS particular McDonalds got demolished and rebuilt 4 years later.

This is definitely a private advertisement by the town or by the owners of travel businesses in the town.  But it does display an important message that probably should be indicated on official DOT road signs.  I think it is critical knowledge if there is more than 30 miles to the next gasoline station.  There may be other factors for determining importance for food and lodging as well.

Another weird but ugly sign, during construction on I-40 near Garner Exit 306.

There are UDOT-issued signs aplenty on either side of the I-70 service "desert" indicating no services (right off the exits) for 105 Miles.  The only difference is that Green River does not have private billboards because US-6/191 turns off and heads to Price one exit further and the service gap is waaay shorter.

And here is what those UDOT signs look like:

At a glance, it looks like it's referring to an I-70 business route. They should have sprung for some red and blue coloring and created a proper Interstate shield.

Report Odor signs along US 275 / NE 92 in Omaha...

Report Odor signs along US 275 / NE 92 in Omaha...

Now we need a meet in Omaha so we can report each other for being stinky.

Exit 25 MPH sign in Petersburg on 95N

That's actually a current standard, though normally it's seen on overhead signs around here.

That ODOR sign... what is the context anyway?   What odors?  Why are they important enough to report them?

Sea Otter Crossing on Moss Landing Road.  I've never seen one of these in California.
