i was confused by the signs you sometimes see on escalators that are apparently warning you of their own existence for a good few years as a child
I’m not going to be the one to tell people how to do it, but perhaps the solution would have been to add text to the sign? Or just a text sign explaining the issue?
See? Much better.
(Really good) image/infographics signs avoid the need for translation to a million different languages. Not sure what would’ve fit best in the case of the escalator.
I agree in a general use sense, but I think this is an instance where the information needed to be explained is a little too complex for a simple icon sign. It may not have alerted non-native speakers, but it probably would have helped more people than this.
This confuses me still
Hitting the brick wall right behind that sign would cause a much more serious injury than hitting the sign would. It’s the same idea as those signs by bridges that say “if you hit this sign you will hit that bridge!”
Better a minor bump on the head than a concussion. Not that an escalator moves fast enough to cause a concussion but you get the idea.
It is warning you about radar head. Not sure what that is but be warned.
It’s warning that you could hit your head on something
You will be surprised by a headless upside-down cat.
Thanks God this sign exists! Without it, I would have, wait a minute…
Priorities!
Aight thanks for the heads up
