If anyone could help me...I know our vespa community spans the globe!
We vacationed in Europe a while back ('06) and visited parts of Poland. An incredibly beautiful and interesting country and people.
While driving on their hwys and roads, I enjoyed trying to figure out what their cautionary signs meant. I took pictures of my favorites, but missed my opportunity to get one which I hope someone may have, and know what it means.
It was the triangle caution, with a man walking across the road with a lightning bolt coming out of his butt, or maybe shocking his butt.
I'm not making this up.
Anyone there who knows of this sign or has a picture for me.
Thanks in advance.
It kinda was like this...

i've been in poland a bunch on tour, and i live in the polish hood in brooklyn, and i can definitely say, that whatever the signs mean, the people driving really don't care.
