On Route 4, in Northern New Jersey, there are a number of signs, which consist
of the word NOTICE, in typical highway sign size lettering, followed by 
a couple of paragraphs, in what must be at most 24 point type.

Besides the fact that its impossible to read from any distance, there's enough
words on that one sign that it might take a minute or two for anyone to read
it, yet they put it on a highway where everybody's going 50 miles per hour, and
the sign is in view for 10 seconds at the most.
