I like this; very Jeffrey Smartish. The warm afternoon light, clean and direct; the strong lines of walls and signs, and the slightly menacing clouds all combine well. But I think you'd need to be a really, really bad driver, or taking defective GPS guidance too seriously, for one of the suggested outcomes.

I thought it meant that if you drive your car in strong currents there will be reason to celebrate! Nice find. Interesting scale with the steps.

This composition is so graphically beautiful, as are the mixtures of colors and textures. Terrific! BV

Wow, what a find! Love those signs. I'm just trying to figure out how you drive up there? Love the composition, light and lines. This rocks!

That has to be the most unusual sign I've ever seen - the car going in the water!

I'm curious about the sign showing the car plunging off the wall. Who is in danger? From the placement of the sign, I would say the folks on the beach below are in danger of having a car drop on top of them at any moment. Weren't you frightened?

That's a really cool image. Love the stairs and the shadows on the brown wall. The little arched gate is very intriguing and the blue sky with that diagonal cloud finishes off the photo perfectly. ~V~

I think they mean business!

So I SHOULDN'T drive my car off a cliff into the water??? Oh man, you should have told me earlier! I like the tones in this and the sharpness of the walls. Those and the subject matter give it a bit of a Jeffrey Smart feel.
