The ever-present moose signs first popped up on I-95 in Maine. But those were just occasional signs. Along the Acadian Coastal Drive in New Brunswick these signs were all over. Some of them were more insistent - including warnings to drive slowly at night.
Unfortunately I only saw the signs, no moose wandering.
New Brunswick is apparently the only (officially) bilingual province in Canada. For the most part, the signs were in both French and English - even the common stop sign that usually is recognized based on its color and shape.
Then again, there was an area on the Acadian Peninsula that seemed to forget the English.

Caution
Let us be proud and responsible!
Let us keep our own footbridge, collect droppings of our doggies!
Announce the faulty ones to 336-3900.
Tell me, why is the warning about the danger of standing next to a fog horn always situated right next to the noise-maker?
OK, OK, you're right - it is a few steps away. But wouldn't it make more sense to post a warning far enough away that on an iffy day you might not wander close enough to damage your ears?
Even worse - here's the same warning right in front of the foghorn. Not a few paces away, right there!
Now this one just made me laugh!
Somehow I don't think I would have wandered out to the point where this sign lived if it had been really foggy...
OK, OK, I'll stay behind the fence!
