When I was a kid I used to believe that those signs on the road that said "Blind Driveway" meant that the driveway was used by a blind person.

I thought railroad crossing signs were Pinnochio. On our way to a movie when I was 5 we got stuck by a train. That was when my mother decided to tell me we were going to see Pinnochio. I thought the sign was him until I was about 7 or 8. Whenever we went past that particular crossing I'd say "There's Pinnochio Mommy!!" and she wouldn't argue. Just smile and nod.

When I was little I found out what an electrical outlet was. SO when I was a little girls every time my mother drove by a street with a sign that said, 'No Outlet' I would cry because I felt bad that the people down that street had no electricy. 'No Outlet'

I can remember driving down the road with my family, when i was very young. I panicked, and asked my dad to turn around quickly, in the car. When he asked why, I stated that the sign on the side of the road said "DO NOT PASS". I thought it meant not to pass the SIGN! :) : ) :)

I used to beleive that road signs grew out of the ground.

Whenever I would be travelling with my parents, I would always see this road sign, "100 Maximum"...I used to think this place called Maximum must have been a really neat place since no matter where we were, it was only 100 kilometers away! :)

When I was about 13 or so...yes pathetic I know...my dad told me that the "No Outlet" signs meant that those poor people didn't have electricity and of couse I believed him for a couple months actually.

years ago when my dad and i use to go to my fiends cottage it would take all night almost so my dad always asked me to talk to him n keep him awake so i did but one day i guess i was annoying him he stopped by this school zone sign saying" watch for children" and he told me the sign ment that if parents kids got annoying all they had to do was drop them off at any of those signs and trade them in for watches i shut up instantly and hit the power lock button till we got there and he giggles the hole way there
next summer i figured it out and then tried it on my cousins n friends
hehehe its being used everywhere i know to little kids that were as gullable as i was

When I was young(er) and stupid(er), I thought that when there was a street sign with an arrow pointing up, that it refered to cars actually going up, instead of forward.

My mom and I use to go to the Outlet every weekend. We were on our way and went down a one-way road when I saw a sign that said "NO OUTLET". I said "mom, this isn't the right way ,see there's no outlet store".

I use to think that when you say a "one-way" stree sign you had to follow it.

I used to believe that "No outlet" signes meant that that street didn't have any electrical outlets. This was a warning for anyone wanting to move into that area.

I used to think that the signs on the side of the road that said "Do Not Pass", meant do not pass that point. I would yell at my mom and tell her to turn the car around, and would get scared something was going to happen, when she didn't.

When driving with my grandpa one day, we passed a "Blind Drive" sign. I asked him what it meant, and he said "It means that the driveway doesn't have any eyes". I believed for the longest time after this that most most driveways had eyes and could see me (and I felt sorry for the ones that didn't)

my mom believed when she was little that a street sign that said don't walk meant you better run.

When my mom was young her and her family would always go camping and pass signs that said "falling rock." My grandfather told my mother and her siblings that falling rock was the ghost of an indian princess and if you looked real close maybe you could find her. My mom believed this up to the age of 17. Until one day when she was driving with some of her friends and started to tell everyone to look for falling rock.

i used to think that the signs that said "not a thru street" meant that no one was allowed to go onto that street...i always wondered how people got to the houses in those streets

jackie!
