In Texas they can legally shoot you if you don’t slow down. It’s called the Speeding Sons A Bitch Defense law. It’s really more of a precedence than a law.
Speaking of preconceptions, #10 implied the sign was made by a gentleman. How do we know it wasn’t made by a very fine, tight jean wearin’ leather chap clad cowgirl?
No Spanish?
Fusion–excellent. I was wondering whether it was for cars, trucks, horses, or pigs but your take is much better.
You have figure the dude who made the sign probably doesn’t speak Spanish, eh?

Perhaps this sign would be more effective if it was placed on the border facing Mexico.
I’m so glad I have this blog to learn about law.

I didn’t know you were Canadian.
Only halfway. Stopped following hockey in 1951.
#7, Improbus,
I suppose the clue was that an American would have spelled it “Mexican”.
In spanish should be:
“MAS DESPACIO
hijoputas”
Please someone forward it to that Texan gentleman.
#9, Mr. Fusion:
Please, let’s be regionally correct. The proper pronunciation is “Meskin,” as my East Texas relatives would say.
What? This started out as a funny sign seen on the side of the road and immediately turned into a language/race hating rant. I don’t get you guys…

Looks like everyone so far is just having a bit of fun. I didn’t see any language/race hating rants until you showed up.
Sometimes we see what we are conditioned to see whether it is there are not.
Hey Texans: That’s “sons of bitches”.
#3 – god,
Nor English. See my prior post.

I forget who, but there is a comedian who jokes that his mother never saw the irony in her calling him a son of a bitch. Brings a smile to my face.

Caught that too eh…my head wouldn’t shake it off the first time I read it.
#14 & #18
Must be a regional thing – I’ve seen (and used) it both ways here in the Southwest.
But, those people who see it understand it.
#16, TA,
Are you suggesting someone like Alphie?
