How do you say 'sardine can' in French?

Dan Dunn alerts us to the French version of Labor Day on Storrow Drive.

Spectactular!

Hey - Boston (well, the MDC I guess) could make some money selling designs to those chain-hung signs to the French. Replacing the chain signs has got to be cheaper than repairing the shiny Hors Gabarit signs!

Oh, wait, they have their own version now (Google Street View - French):

Durham, NC

11foot8 is about a railroad overpass there that gets crashed into once a month. Complete with videos!

Truck with Freezer

It is pictured in front of a building where my boss took me to a really good restaurant the last time we visited RTP. We had to detour around another truck crash to get there.

Where was that?

On the Cramped-Elysees?

If I'm reading the comments

If I'm reading the comments page correctly, they can't get permission to install an overhead sign at the top of the ramp because it's a historic district (right in front of the Arc de Triomphe), so the city is looking into an laser-based automatic warning system.

Appropriate, considering

...how many Quebecois truck drivers have hit bridge supports and caused other accidents in Boston over the years, right around rush hour.
