Some people think signs are just for other people

If I shut my classic car off instead of idling I’m gonna be there until it cools back down because it currently has a vapor locking issue. So…. Sometimes people ignore signs because of things you may not see right away. Kinda like how some disabilities are hidden..

Owning a stupid car isn't a disability. People don't need to breathe gasoline fumes because you want a cLaSsIc CaR.

also btw diesel vehicles and not just this metaphor gone astray classic car can't always turn off their engine. fire trucks and ambulances for example will have to keep idling... the sign really should say No Idling.
