Have you ever seen a road sign that's made you laugh, or made you think what a waste of space? 
Well, trust me there are plenty! The best one that I've ever seen is a red sign on a country road saying sign not in use. There are also signs that say slow down or die and parking for drive-thru service only
I basically wanted to show young people some of the signs that made me giggle. 
Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson also feels that the people of Britain needed to see some of the ridiculous road signs that are dotted around the country. 
A name and shame campaign was launched by Top Gear, to embarrass local councils, who use these stupid signs. The campaign was so popular that several website such as Flickr, have set up fan groups where people can post there own photos of crazy road signs
Finally I would like to say, even though theses signs are a waste of money, space and resources, they do make me laugh and I am glad that they do exist :)
