This has been shining in my eyes for the last 10 minutes whilst the bus driver takes a break.
I read
"Technical Education Opens Doors
OR
Your Child"
I though it was a threat to either go to college, or satan takes your child as a sacrifice for being ignorant.
I’m sure I’ve seen them with the side panel showing the route the bus was travelling on.
No surprise that they eventually gave that up for ad money.
Next step will be to have that screen in colour and animated. And speakers.
You mean like these?
Wake up babe, new Ad Block just dropped.
Shit that’s bright af.
Having been to Manchester very recently, I can think of bigger things to complain about.
(Not that I have room to talk, being in Blackburn.)
Stage coach?
What made you unable to look in a different direction?
Sir, this is c/mildlyinfuriating, let me whinge in peace.
to whomever invented
LEDadvertisements.fuck being bombarded with literal propaganda all day.
I’m surprised that’s legal. You’d think it would distract other drivers
Technical education opens doors, or your child.
Please don’t open my child.
I saw this, too, and I don’t even have a child.
Put the knife away Waltuh
(psssst ackshually it says “for”)
Why you gotta ruin it for us?
Alternate question: How powerful of a laser do you need to burn out the LEDs on those sort of displays?
At least three.
Maybe even four.
Looks like it’s supposed to say that, but currently doesn’t. Lol
Love your username 👍
Thankyou so much :) <3
I think such things are banned in Australia. Clearly not safe for traffic.
Which is strange since we have full size electronic billboards (in WA). I don’t believe they can have scrolling text/animations etcs, but they will change once or twice in the time you can see them at fwy speeds.
They are super repulsive to me because they are more vibrant and attention demanding than traditional printed billboards (especially in low light conditions) and feel like late 90’s pop-up ads.Also i dont need a ~25m² screen changing in my peripheral vision when im already busy keeping to keep an eye on some dickhead in a lifted ford raptor or Yank Tank who is cutting through traffic.
Yeah it’s ok on a static object by law, but not on a moving vehicle.
And yes, even here in Armidale we have about four of them, and they don’t seem to have night dimming so can be a bit blinding.
here just the city lights, and city street high beamers, and tall trucks that have only high beams and higher beams… anyway those are blinding enough as it is
In my area once in awhile I’ll see this box truck where it’s covered in LED screens with animated ads on it that drives around. Annoying at best, a road hazard at worst.
Same here, and great that it’s wasting gas and polluting at the same time! I hate it with a burning passion.
They drive these up and down the Las Vegas strip, which generally is snarled with traffic. So adding to traffic too.

FYI, your post title should use “whoever”, not “whomever”.
A good trick to tell whether to use “who” or “whom” is to replace “whom” with “him” or “who” with “he”. It’ll be immediately obvious (to a native English speaker) which is correct.
Whomever invented LED bus advertisements becomes Him invented LED bus advertisements
Vs
Whoever invented some stupid shit becomes He invented some stupid shit
Clearly someone needed a technical education as a child.
It says “to”. To whom.
Ffs of all the colors they could have used too.
