Baffling Welsh No-GPS Sign

Welsh road sign (Sky News) Sky News: “New signs are warning motorists to ignore their sat-navs on narrow Welsh lanes — but drivers may have a tricky time working out the symbols on the design.” You think? Four signs have been erected in a one-year trial. Via Engadget.

Update, Sept. 1: The Daily Telegraph’s coverage plays it straight, makes no mention of the signs’ incomprehensibility. Via Boing Boing.
