Contenders for confusing sign awards

We love this post by 3AW Radio in Melbourne featuring yet another confusing bit of signage found by one of their listeners.  Working in the parking industry, initial thoughts were that we could probably figure this out – but no, we have to agree, it’s mighty unclear.

Apparently, it means that Standing is allowed for up to 15 minutes, but you must remain with your vehicle at all times.  Right!  Perhaps a few more words might have been helpful there.

In the same article, another 3AW follower provided this evidence of spectacularly poor positioning of signage in a Victorian shopping centre car park.  Many questions spring to mind:  Is the person responsible for this gem still employed? Has any shopper successfully utilised this space? Is anyone considering re-positioning the sign in future? It might be worth a visit there just to find out!
