It is ridiculous it is every 1/4 mile for gods sake do they think people have the attention span of 6 year old.

Well....Yeah. Every day I meet people that get lost walking out the door....there is no shortage of stupid people in the world.

and think about the Brain Trust that makes up the Tourist Population that invades the cape every year.....I'm betting there aren't a whole lot of Einsteins in that group

So

the signs...

effin joke that they are.

some misguided muslim flys a plane into the Plymouth Nuke plant, or it goes into failure on it's own... my only option is to drive TOWARDS it in heavy traffic for God knows how long... OK.. yeah, that makes sense.. Huge Hurricane comes along .. I ain't heading for them Model T bridges.... stayed through Bob, and a few others.. i'm used to camping in the rough, no worries, and i'm high and dry at my place.. if it goes 100 feet above sea level, were all toast anyway.

they should just have signs that says, in case of emergency.. bend over, kiss your ass goodbye.

but.. i do recall reading it's funded and mandatory.. just shows Govt. at its.. "best"

kinda moronic.. i mean really.. how many ways are there over them bridges?

The funny thing is--coming off 6, the last sign is just before the 6A merge. Once you get over the bridge, there's no sign telling you which way to go next.

East towards Scussett Beach?

West towards Buzzards Bay (figure 2 hours minimum to get there during a mass exodus)?

Or straight up 3? Towards the radioactive cloud billowing out of Pilgrim

Did the money run out or are they still trying to figure which is the best of 3 lousy options?

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
