  2. Hey, I’m guilty of misspelling words too. And I almost got fired for it. I’m in no position to cast stone on anyone, though this mistake is a bit too “blatant”. :)

    What I keep wondering is how many drivers missed this exit while the highway workers hid their embarrassment. Local reports say the sign was corrected approximately 24 hours after it first went up. Personally, I think leaving the sign uncovered would have been the better option. But that’s just me.

  3. But what should the sign say? Does it really mean: watch out, there is a mountain ahead?

    LOL. I hadn’t read it that way before… Look Out! Mountain ahead! But either way, they misspelled mountain.
