I really like warning signs. I like their look and aesthetic, but I mostly love them for being so clear and concise. No ambiguity. No questions. No being pained with guilt if you disobey them. They are just signs. They do not care for you.
Stop. That's all. Stop. No, "Well, if you want to go, it's cool," or "You should know what to do here." Just stop. All that other stuff would be superfluous and wordy.
Signs care not if they hurt your feelings. They are going to say what they want, and no one will get hurt. Some people may get frustrated and disobey the signs, and they will end up hurting themselves and possibly others. "I said not to drive over the road during a flood. Now look at what has happened to your precious Celica."
Signs are honest. Signs are helpful. Signs do their duty.
Please. Be like the signs.
