Should you purchase a can of red paint to prevent others from being caught in your quandry? Who would make a green stop sign? Do we have some local sign ordinance to thank for this? This is broken.

Then there's the emergency phone. Great, I'm driving along without a cell phone and I really need to make a phone call. I see a sign ahead. At last, an emergency phone. This is great. Wait, 174km ahead? Really? Can that be useful in an emergency? This is broken.
