Warning Sign on I-290

Was running north on I - 290 toward Rockford, IL today. In a construction zone near Schaumburg was one of those portable blinking warning message signs. It read ;

Maybe they print them via a PDA/Barcode setup. The latest parking ticket I got in Washington DC looked like it rolled out of a small thermal printer. The ticket was 15 bucks cheaper then valet parking :P That does seem like an excessive amount of speeding though.

Harry, you said that you were running on I-290. Isn't it easier to ride in the car than to run along the Interstate? :-)

Harry,

I drive that stretch every day. Sorry I didn't see it. I would have liked to take a picture of it.

Harry, you are beginning to worry me. It can be downright dangerous running alongside your car; but maybe that's how you got to see the inside of a police cruiser :-)
