Not sure where the first sign is, but it's not the EU.

Can't say I've ever come across that format of road signage.

I've done this maneuver by trying to go through a pot hole instead of around, it hurts! Broke two of my front teeth and had to have some surgery done.

At least that one has the red triangle - if it's a condition where you may be ejected completely from your vehicle, at least a red triangle please

They are a hazard to bikes as the wheel gets stuck in the groove.

It's not a very good sign though. Looks like there is no front wheel on the bike, which does indeed make it a bit dangerous.

There is a tram laid out over the street pavement. The front wheel gets stuck in the tram tracks. The wheel is stuck really tough. Enough to twist the bike handle and rip it off of your hands and spin it violently against your elbows or ribs. Finally the bike topples with that twist and you fall face first to the concrete, your arms too numb to raise in front of you.

i'm a cyclist, and i find these signs to be utterly hilarious

even though i have ridden over train tracks in extremely snowy weather and gone down like a sack of bricks
(i know this sign is about getting your wheel caught, not slippery when wet, just sayin i've busted my ass on tracks before) -- still hilarious

If it isn't a unicycle, don't ride it like one, because you'll end up bleeding out the head and ass.

Yep. Tram tracks can mess you up, with the slightest inattention or distraction.

We are taught to make sure to cross tracks perpendicularly. They can be SUPER SLIPPERY too so it's not a "wrench" from a gap, but a slide-out from wet slimy metal. I wasn't goin' fast so I was ok...

The front wheel just turned 90 degrees because of the tram rail, with more force than the handlebar was tightened. I get that if it hasn't happened to you (yet), you might not recognize the sign. 😆

Trying to use your bike as a pogo stick may result in you taking a nap in mid-air.

This happened to my wife one time many years ago: she flew off and landed helmet first (thank goodness for helmets!) and got a bunch of scrapes and a really nasty black eye. For a week or so every time we were in public - starting with the nurses at the ER - I got the worst looks from people making unfortunate assumptions about the cause of said black eye. But she was ok.
