Zombie Road Signs Invading Australia (No Joke)

" 'Zombie' copycats hack electronic road signs"
News.com.au (February 3, 2009)

"ZOMBIE road signs are invading Australia, as vandals take to hacking the electronic displays with simple instructions from the web.

" 'Zombies ahead!' warned one sign on the Gold Coast this week, in reference to a now-infamous message displayed in the US last month.

"The pranksters also illegally hacked into signs around the area with other messages, including "Nobody has ever loved you," according to GoldCoast.com.au...."

No question about it: there's humor in these hacked road signs. I indulged in a chuckle, myself.

It's funny.

Until somebody gets killed. These are working road signs, remember?
