I could see myself not wanting to walk on the coffin shaped stripe for the funeral home for some reason.
And…..wouldn’t the victims one actually be dangerous as people might read it ? Having said that, it does get the message across I guess.
Pretty cool ideas though.

These are great, with the exception of the Zebra Crossing Memorial.
“Names of victims of traffic accidents were painted as white stripes of zebra”
I mean, don’t you find it Ironic that if people stand in the crosswalk, reading the memorial they just might be a victum of a traffic accident. just sayin.

this is just a heads up, but if your going to gloat about being first(and dont get me wrong, i totally would)can you at least spell first right? because it is spelled first, not frist. frist is not, to the best of my knowledge, a word
