Yeah Unbalanced that's cool, but none of yours say SR20 on them.

I dont wanna sound like a old man but if someone gets killed because you stole a warning sign you can be held liable.

I have heard of someone stealing a stop sign and someone got killed because of the sign was missing, they got a manslaughter charge for it.

Think of the consequences.

I didnt see any signs there that could of "Killed" anyone. Maybe the 50 sign but theres usualy 10000 of them on a road.

the best sign is the compressed air warning one.
"do not indulge in so called 'practical jokes' with compressed air"

how about the danger high voltage, or the caution swimmers, or the caution do not enter unsafe structure fire damage, or the fire exit sign?

BILL*69 · « **Reply #11 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 11:49AM »

And as much as you would like to think, you stealing street signs isnt that cool.

The SR20 is co-incidental, and quite funny to be honest. The 50 sign, and danger swimming and all that shit, they are everywhere. How often do you see an SR20 sign?

Budgie · « **Reply #12 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 03:31PM »

SR20 sign for the win!

Need to find a CA18 sign now

Unbalanced_ · « **Reply #13 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 03:41PM »

Haha

KA24

What places could KA be?

Finally someone else who can see sense. The warning is there.

phantom · « **Reply #16 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 07:18PM »

why are you stealing signs???
apart from endangering people and stealing,what have you achieved? an addition to your f00lly sick 'sign collection'?
i just dont understand

JelloBello · « **Reply #17 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 07:26PM »

I approve of the sr20 sign.... besides it was just on the side of the road

however, must say I disapprove of your "collection" unbalanced... I mean as people have pointed out there's a safety issue, but heck - even the L.J. hooker "home open" sign pisses me off a bit. They're not free and I think you'd be surprised how much a sign like that can cost!

trx_reece · « **Reply #18 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 07:42PM »

i found a sign in malaga industrial area. its on a warehouse, i thought it was quite funny for a business name, it said "long wang international" i have to get a photo of it.

Luke · « **Reply #19 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 07:42PM »

We only have to SR20 cos it is actually something funny, we wouldn't think of taking any other signs just for the fun of it.

Unbalanced_ · « **Reply #20 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 08:11PM »

To be honest, it was a bit of a sport for me at one point.
I was part of a group of about 10 people around Adelaide and we were always just trying to get signs that were "cooler" than the last... And the 50 was just cos I think 50kms on the road that its on is frickin' ridiculous! lol

And I understand its a safety issue, thats why i never took any signs that
a) there wasnt another of (ie. the black arrow being on a corner with 5 other black arrows, and the danger high voltage sign was placed about 3 meters from another one on the other side of a doorway into a powerstation)
b) were stop signs, give way signs, intersection markings or anything like that
c) didnt have some kind of reason. Meaning, i didnt ever take a sign for no reason. It was either a challenge or i specifically wanted a sign of that design for a particular reason.

Anyways, im not going to defend my point any further. In theory it may seem like some of them could be missed (meaning, without them it poses a threat) but if that were the case, I wouldnt have taken them.

maybe you guys should have joined a lawn bowls team?

Jason · « **Reply #22 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 08:30PM »

I think the sign is pretty cool. And the people who dont think its cool are just jealous because they dont have one. And i think your gunna have trouble finding a KA 24 sign because there normally in multiples of 5.

BILL*69 · « **Reply #23 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 08:51PM »

Jason, i dont think the reaction is towards your SR20 sign, but mroe the stealing of high voltage signs etc. I think the guys on here are worried about the safety threats of not having the important signs.

I dont think it really matters if Swan Reach is 20km's away and drivers dont know it.

Jason · « **Reply #24 on:** Feb 3, 2008, 08:57PM »

Yeah i know what you mean, dont worry i would never steal a stop sign from a railway crossing.

I found a blue street sign that said 'Slovenian Bocce Club' a while back...

yes it does. When i noticed the sign saying TY ( Toodyay) 30 i realised i was heading the wrong bloody way.
Had a long drive home and i wasnt exactly sitting at a speed limit.
Stupid other car club having a hills cruise and gettin everyone lost

cruizer · « **Reply #27 on:** Feb 4, 2008, 01:20PM »

Haha in Apollo Bay they have a sign saying "Drive on left side in Asutralia"

Rake · « **Reply #28 on:** Feb 4, 2008, 10:26PM »

Looks like a train related sign to me

Haha, definitely!
Well, then again, thats coming from me, lol.

For a while there when I was unemployed every one of my mates b-days, me and a few mates would drive to wherever we had to and steal their 1st or last name street sign. Fun times. lol.

bones · « **Reply #31 on:** Feb 7, 2008, 05:02PM »

my mates and i would get drunk and run around to road works and take the signs go back home and draw all over them for a distraction at our lil gatherings...lol
ahhhh to be young again...

Unbalanced_ · « **Reply #32 on:** Feb 7, 2008, 05:03PM »

Another cool one to get would be U13 or U12 - I know where U5 is, but no idea about U13 or U12.

bones · « **Reply #33 on:** Feb 7, 2008, 05:33PM »

check a map or street directory...
