Unexpected Traffic Signs Around The World

The number of signs you pass by on your everyday journey and some of them you don't even notice. It's only while travelling and seeing all the unusual traffic signs which warn or inform you of one situation or another is when you really get alert. I myself found the most interesting signs while travelling in Australia. Judge for yourself in our gallery.
