I love the mottoes on the electronic highway signs down there. Who writes them? Often give me a smile.

I think I read like 3 years ago that it is one person's job and their salary for this is 70k??? Because I was in shock!

Wow - those big black things over the highway are supposed to show messages?

In MA, they are blank and serve as warm bird perches

Camera angle puts OP closer towards the right side of the lane.

Not hard to tilt your hand while taking a photo

KennyWuKanYuen t1_iu65fww wrote on October 28, 2022 at 9:01 PM

Not from this photo. OP would’ve had to put the phone way across the dash to get the bias it has.

The photo is biased towards the right, indicating they’re in the passenger seat. I’ve taken photos parked and at a full stop. You really have to struggle to get that same angle with that clarity, especially at highway speeds.

Nah

KennyWuKanYuen t1_iub4ylv wrote on October 29, 2022 at 11:45 PM

I just tried it. What you’re claiming is bullshit. The fact that OP would’ve been able to keep their phone stable, zoom in,and snap the photo all while driving is unlikely.

Learn camera perspectives. It’s clearly biased towards the passenger seat.

The lines also give it away too. The lines on the right are in a straighter orientation while the lines on the left are at an angle. 🤦‍♂️

Imagine giving this much of a damn about the direction of camera was in when it took a shot? Get a damn life dude.

EDIT: Petty as shit for the downvote. You live a sad life and have my condolences.

Love the movie and the song...

Now.....

Why is exit 16 now exits 33A-B? I still get confused telling people what exit to get off at.

sc00p401 t1_iu56d1m wrote on October 28, 2022 at 5:03 PM

The exit numbers were changed so that they match whatever mile marker you're at. I hear it's supposed to be a nationwide change.

It’s been this way in much of the country for a long time. New England dragged its feet making the change.

JimmyHavok t1_iu5eco1 wrote on October 28, 2022 at 5:56 PM

At least exit 1B and exit 18 aren't on the same sign any more.

RedditSkippy t1_iu5zopd wrote on October 28, 2022 at 8:21 PM

I like the system. It’s going to take a while for me to remember the new numbers after a lifetime of the old, but that’s okay.

Stay in Focus - by changing focus off the road and reading this sign.

Oh yeah, I’m sure this will convince people to not text and drive. These things are dumb as shit.

Have a great weekend everyone!
