Electronic Signage should tell you what is actually happening !

You know those big electronic signs above the motorway and on the streets before you get to an on-ramp? Why do they never tell you that the motorway you are about to pull onto is a freaking car park. Would it be too hard to tell me that I am about to sit in traffic for a hour, rather than the RTA wishing me a nice day, or to remind me that the a bridge 10Km away will be closed for polishing in a few weeks time.

They are called variable message signs. Vary the message sometime to something useful ! I am talking to you Sydney RTA. M5 on-ramp. Bexley North. Nuff said.
