Road Signs

In accordance to navigational design topic, I decided to also touch on road signs (especially in Malaysia).

Some of my Malaysian friends do critique about their local road signs saying either it is "only when close to entering the junction only can see the road sign and it made them either missed it or endangering other drivers due to giving late signals" or "there are too many signs that say, for example, there'll be two roads and signs labeled 'Kuala Lumpur' from one single straight road".
(I hope you get what I was explaining..)

Anyway, here are some examples I took from Google images and it said to be from Malaysia:


Never seen this before in Malaysia or anywhere that is, not even my own country cause we definitely do not have elephants crossing roads nor elephants in the jungle. But if there are elephants crossing roads, I would definitely want to see it.


We do not have this in my country but its a good sign to put as to remind people how dangerous speeding can be. Its big and in red too, a very good combination.


Does this considered as a road sign? Its a good one though, remind people what's going to happen if they are caught feeding the monkeys.
