   There were a few of these signs on I-80 as we were driving through Wyoming and Utah (I can’t remember which state it was in). The sign made me think about usability testing with computers in order to make sure that the user is getting exactly what the programmers/designers wanted out of the application.

   Obviously if the state conducted usability testing with this sign they would realize while cars passed by at approximately 70-80 miles per hour there is no way possible to read this sign and understand the directional flow.
