Jan 5, 2011: Traffic Sheep
 

The officials of the Municipality of Gland, Switzerland, felt traffic cones are a safety necessity.
But they are kind of ugly, kind of boring, and kind of ignored, so they hired Christophe Machet to do better.

If I saw one of those on the road I would probably steal one.

I think you just blew your chance for Swiss citizenship. :haha:

Me too !!!

Probably swerve off the road -> off a cliff -> wheels off the ground -> car explodes.

Wait, that's what's in those sheep so poachers get their just reward.

That would never work in America....Every Hillbilly with a truck would aim for 'em and run them over.

It's a Ba-a-a-a-a-hd idea. :-)

You wooled say that

some are red-striped, some are plain white...and then there's the lone blue-striped fella. wonder why.

crazy ass Swiss.

He's the blue-striped sheep of the family.

(Can't use the B-word any more. not PC)

I have distant family in Switzerland (google my maiden name and there are a few of us) but that isn't my da-a-a-a-a-a-a-d. ;)

*snore*

Sorry, just fell asleep trying to count them.

That is a great idea.

Cuteness aside, around here traffic cones are often used to denote temporary lanes in some very narrow areas. The sheep-shapes would take up too much space.
