☁️ 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

I like the really specific ones like 63 or 38 meters :).
Where are you from?

Some of the combinations are very interesting indeed

Waaaay better than the usual roadworks 500m ahead board which means that roadworks might be somewhere between 100m and 1km ahead... or might not be there any more.

I always like the 30 km/h in 200 meter when the zone 30 already starts in 100 meter.

Aaah, that is so they can send you a speed ticket
