Why is this message so important that it must be put on every programmable road sign when there is nothing to report? I was driving home to my beloved Delaware this morning and I was confronted with this no less than six times. I can understand having them announce an accident at a certain location, a road that is closed, high winds, bad weather and even slow traffic. But why can’t they be just left blank when there is nothing happening? And why this message? It’s a joke. It’s distracting. Here you are, heading home after a long day. You notice the sign and try to read it while trying to keep track of all that’s going on around you. You are expecting a warning and it’s the same stupid message. After a while, you just stop looking at it. It’s far safer to keep your eyes on the road. So what is the real need for these signs? I don’t get it.
