Message on I-78 sign an eye-opener
Something from the Reading Eagle in PA...kind of funny.



Berks County, PA - “LIVE NUDES EXIT 45”

It’s not the travel tip you’d expect to see on a portable Pennsylvania Department of Transportation road sign along Interstate 78.

That’s what Bethel Township resident Rick Yeakley thought Sunday as he passed the sign shortly after 7 a.m. as skies were brightening.

“I saw it and thought, ‘That can’t be right,’ ” he said.

Exit 45 is for Route 863 in Lehigh County.

Kudos to the person who pulled this off!

1. Supposedly the passwords for the control panels to those things are usually
something factory default, such as 1234, 1111, 12345, 11111, 123456, 111111 and so on

2. From the article:
PennDOT Engineering District 5 spokesman Ronald J. Young Jr. said the evidence showed someone tampered with the sign.


Really? Someone tampered with the sign? They don't just show messages such as "live nudes exit 45" on their own?

Who knew?
