wow, lot of controversy over something so stupid.

look people, this is private property. the owners of the building can decide what they want to do and where. if there's a wreck the individuals involved are solely responsible for whatever happens...even the police can't get involved. they're just mediators.

any way, who cares? are you ever going into that building? when you freak out, swerve into oncoming traffic or off the edge of the building, end up with some dibilitating condition then you can gripe about it till ur tongue falls out...otherwise...i dont really care either way what happens...keep griping or dont, up to you.


any way, i think it's a better idea than a bunch of words like slow, or caution that's painted in boring yellow that noone pays attention to any way.

So local town officials are now in charge of a public school that is somehow private property?

Don't think so.

That picture is an example of what it will look like. The BC Government is planning on implementing those images on all school zones and busy traffic areas. Problem right now is that this isn't going to do jack, since there's so much coverage regarding this. Once people know where image, they are going to be going their regular speed the next day.

This won't work unless the government decides to change the image every day.

...what? Wal Mart is private property. A corporation owns that crap. PUBLIC schools are PUBLIC (ie gov't) property. 2 completely different things.

Oh, so you're saying that if I kick someone's butt in my garage (private property) the police won't get involved???

Hmmm...
