Sign Typo Turns Traffic Sign Into Dangerous Distraction

A traffic sign installed outside a private preschool in Auburn, California, urging drivers to slow down is certainly getting noticed, but, ironically, is making the street less safe for kids.
An odd "typo" — which may or may not be intentionally — has resulted in the sign asking passing motorists to "please slow drively."
In its slow-news-day report on the sign, Sacramento's Fox40 got to the bottom of absolutely nothing, choosing instead to ask random people they bumped into what they thought of the sign.
One of the younger interviewees posited that perhaps the sign was installed by the preschoolers themselves.
Fox40 did note that sign appeared to be "confusing drivers," which is exactly what you want in a road sign.
