The reason for the sign is that it is not possible to know where the low points on the road are until you hit the water.

We ALL know what the sign ACTUALLY means ..... it's simply meant to be tongue-in-cheek irony hmm

Cheers - John

Gday...

No Nomes ... no ownership of that one .... was sent to me as a 'tongue-in-cheek- larf .... the irony of Strayan outback .... dead dry, desolate and a sign warning of flood.

Made me larf but I guess I must sit on my humour cry

Cheers - John

These locations usually get a year's supply of rain in a day or two. You understand why the signs are there pretty easily then.

There is a freestanding sign just down the road reading "Water over road". Not likely. Not with this drought.
