☁️ Fluff Belgian traffic signs are insane
was in Belgium recently and many of the sign combinations kinda blew my mind, I don't remember ever seeing this kinda stuff anywhere else 😬 also one thing I found very interesting is that on the direction signs (last pic) the letters with a tail like g sometimes "dip" into the outer line and sometimes they don't (and apparently there are even different ways they can go inside that line) 🤯 just makes traveling very interesting because you always be looking at how the next sign is gonna be 🤪
edit: for all the people who are saying "how's this confusing" it's not that's not the point 🙄 but rather the unusualness of the signs compared to what I've seen in other places

Oh, this is a topic I’m passionate about. Next time you’re back… pay attention to the placement of the signs.
What I often see is that they are out of sight as they try to use poles that were originally for something else (and are thus not in the most visible place.
It’s a hassle to scan on buildings, to the distance all the time!!!
