Singapore sign posts

One thing I have come to love in Singapore are the road signs! There is nothing more frustrating when you are on the highway cruising along, at the speed limit ofcoarse, and all of a sudden traffic comes to a halt. The once happy attitude in the car turns sour at the possibility of sitting in an hour of traffic. Somehow it all seems better when you reach the sign ahead alerting you of what went wrong. You see, they have these signs that are elctronic and change according to the situation, telling of coming events in the area, or accidents or car jams. Today on the way home from our Drs. appt. Ethan and I encountered one of these traffic jams. It was bad enough already that it decided to down pour on us, so we were already feeling a bit cranky. But we somehow felt a little better when we saw that familiar sign ahead that said "vehicle breakdown lane 2 rochor rd. exit". There was a light at the end of the tunnel, a break in traffic ahead! We were not far from that exit so knew the traffic would clear soon. Gotta love those signs. We should adopt this system in the states.
