Wheelchair signs
The Fail Blog lists amusing and depressing (and occasionally not safe for work) photos and videos of design failures and Darwin Award winners
I have scraped the site for some of the best transportation related pictures (trying to remove the obvious fakes), and present them here. First up, problems with transportation for the physically disabled, and the lack of a systems perspective on these things.

The glyphs are funny, but I'd have to disagree on the interpretation of that last one. I had a student in my Transportation Geography class last term who was in a wheelchair, and he talked about "walking" around campus the same way everyone else did. I don't know how typical that is, but it was interesting to me.

Hahaha thanks for the laugh. We sell handicap vans, and we always appreciate good "handicap accessible" humor :)
