This is probably not the appropriate response, but I was in the shower a few hours after seeing this post and started thinking, "If there really WERE zombies ahead, like a 28 Days Later outbreak a few miles down the road, what would I put on the sign?"...

Like, ZOMBIES AHEAD wouldn't work (obviously) so you'd need something scary; but at the same time, you wouldn't to confuse people onto an unsafe path.

I decided on, "DO NOT PROCEED, GUNMEN AT LARGE," and I would try to divert cars off the freeway. But still, there has to be a more effective message. THOUGHTS WELCOME!

ps: good post, Dan :)

oh this will cause a ruckus, just like those viral adultswim people. i can tell.... or is this some fruity postmodernist take on america, where, we're all the consumerist zombies that etc. etc.... still nothing cool like that on my highway.

ahh, terrorist adult swim marketers, those were the days! i think this is more that kind of thing, rather than deep commentary :D
