So this artist in L.A., fed up with a poorly marked exit lane, made his own sign to show the exit in time for motorists to change lanes appropriately. "Los Angeles artist and frustrated commuter" Richard Ankrom made the sign, to the exact specifications of the DOT's own signs, "as a benevolent gesture to guide motorists and to show that art has a legitimate place in society." Two cheers to this man, who, faced with interminable bureaucracy in asking for the signage to be improved, just did it himself. He calls it "Guerilla Public Service."
