"Sleeping Policemen" are bumps in the road to slow down traffic, and the sign with the bloke crouching ON the toilet is because in some countries they use a hole in the ground that they would crouch over and may be unfamiliar with the western toilet. Some of these are only funny because of ignorance.

i was lmaoing and boo hoo for whoever thinks ppl laugh out of ignorance. im sure people like me take foreign affairs into consideration but overrule them for a good laugh. lighten up :P
The term 'Sleeping policemen' in England is another name for speed humps. Still amusing though.
A lot of good jokes only work thanks to ignorance, so it isn't necessarily a bad thing...
... but half of these signs aren't even remotely funny, and the other half isn't great...
Thank you for sharing this with us, those pictures are absolutely hilarious. :)
