Low Bidders
A photo gallery of funny, amateurish, or just gawdafull pavement marking and traffic signs. I started it when my city awarded a big striping job to a company from out of town that was a lot lower on price than me. The job was at the local convention center, and their work was so bad, it was embarrassing. I took a couple of pictures and posted them. Since then, I have received pictures of bad work from all over the world. Email Robert if you can add to the collection.

SDStriper sent this. Why don't folks just lift up the lightpole base instead of getting overspray all over it? |
