Plunging Vehicle Safety (A Collection)

I appreciate that in some countries, they put up signs to warn you about potential dangers, rather than erecting safety barriers everywhere (like we do in the US). Here is a collection of signs demonstrating the delight cars take in plunging into cool waters after miles of hot driving.

In Dublin, the mafia has marked the spot where they send their enemies into the drink in their old 70's sedans. Surprised they haven't been caught in the act.

Thanks Even H!

In Germany, the bacon will save you. You can't see it, but it's there, just under the water.

 

Thanks Ruth K!

Elsewhere in Ireland, depending on the tide levels, you'll be just fine. 

Thanks Maureen F!

However, should the tide be up and you go in, there is a handy life preserver for, uh, the car. I guess the car pictured is life size...

Thanks Danielle H!

Of course if you can't see the sign or the water, you are done for. Best keep some flippers in the car at all times in Ireland.

Thanks Nicole N!

They have similar warning signs in Taiwan. Wouldn't it be easier to see the water from a bike?

Maybe it's just an homage to artist Bas Jan Ader.

Thanks Raymond H!
