I just got back from your wonderful state. It's amazing on the coast, and it makes me wonder why I'm still living in Montana. One thing though, one thing I find highly annoying. Perhaps the entire state was sick on this day of driver's ed, but you use one particular road sign incorrectly. It's this one:

That sign means "divided highway." All of your roadway engineers seem to think it means "no passing zone." I'm sorry Oregon, but this means no passing zone:

Ya see how it says "NO PASSING ZONE" in all caps? Please, Oregon, take up some of these "no passing zone" signs and please replace all of the misused "divided highway" signs. Maybe 1/3 of the time, did

end up meaning "divided highway." That's just obnoxious and sullies the otherwise amazing reputation of your state.
