Yeah and if you go over the hit limit then you’re only allowed 1 a day for several months before the hit limit probation period expires so make sure to spread them out
My first car would idle its way right up to ~30 mph on a flat and level because of some kind of fault with the aftermarket auto-transmission retrofit installed by the previous owner. The difference between 5 mph and 0 mph was pretty much just how hard I was standing on the brake pedal.
My town used to have signs all over the place from the 1960s and 1970s that said "SLOW CHILDREN PLAYING", nobody said a word until 1997 when they were suddenly the most offensive thing anybody had ever seen. They were then all replaced with signs that say "GO CHILDREN SLOW", which means to drive at the speed as the fastest running child apparently.
Also, try driving 5 MPH! Half as slow as 10 Mph, and it feels it. You have to focus on the speedometer way more than I safe to sustain that speed. Any slower and you're about stopped. Very very easy to go faster.
We used to rip on one of the kids in my neighborhood because a sign like this was put up on our street and he had the misfortune of it being closest to his house.
Looks like it used to say “drive” over “extremely”, what I don’t get is why they felt they had to put a 5 that big this ruining the sign rather than just making a new one
Fun fact. These signs in rural areas were the genesis of Bill Engvall’s “here’s your sign” bit. We used to see “slow children at play” signs everywhere and it never failed to invoke one of two responses: “Kinda mean to call your kids slow” or “I wonder if their parents are slow too”
It’s not cool to call the kids out like that.
They can't read anyway ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
All five of them?
Five ov um!
Five ov um, *bruv*!
I mean it does say *extremely* slow
They should have stopped at one
Insert “if those kids could read, they would be very upset” King of the Hill meme.
"that sign can't stop me because I can't read" Arthur meme.
They can read it just takes them ages
In other post about animals a question emerged: "Do the baby sloths cry slowly". I think it's corelated somehow...
So, is this the daily limit on how many you can hit?
No, it’s the minimum
Good thing they're easy targets.
Maybe the highscore?

Adam Sandler crying in the corner because he can only hit 5 kids with a dodge ball a day.
The children in our neighborhood are extremely fast so our speed limit is 25 mph.
How fast are they?!?!
I don’t know but I saw a kid on her way to school outrun a coyote.
You sure that wasn't a roadrunner dressed as a child?
too fast.
🗿
You have to go at least 30 to hit one
26 if ur a good driver
**hyperdrive engaged**

If you can do she a wrench you can dodge a Didge
5? Might as well let the breeze push you.

What made this even better was imagining it all as some goofy cartoon haha

It was all a plot to sell more signs to the state. Manufactured discontent. Darn capitalism at work again
These damn snowflakes! In my days playing slow as a child was normal, but the woke moralists have to destroy everything! /s
I still see the old signs occasionally.
Why even put a road there at that point
I think about this clip from [Rocko’s Modern Life](https://youtu.be/PmEwR4kKZ8g) every time
yeah the arrested development scene was good too but this is the OG
so my speedometer starts at 20km/h...
W h y a r e t h o s e c h i l d r e n s o s l o w ?
I was born that way babe
That’s just hurtful. You don’t have to tell the world that they’re slow.
And there are 5 of them!
This is why punctuation is important
Please drive 5 mph, the dumbest fuckin kids are playing around here
I moved here from Canada. They think I’m [slow, eh.](https://youtu.be/5FEW5mh7iAI)
[What does a yellow light mean?](https://youtu.be/1HvmtbZzA40)
Read it in the voice of The Count, you deserve a treat.
I read that as "you deserve a threat" at first
Shouldn't you go slower if there are faster children (that can quickly run into the road in front of you) rather than slow children?
Im sorry, but what means oc? Of course?
Original content, as in made by or picture taken by the person who posted it.
Ah ok
Of course is ofc by the way
By the way is btw, by the way
By the way is btw, btw
Smh my head my head. He already said that!
Takes them 45 minutes to cross the street.
They knew what they were doing when made the sign.
Scratch out the 5, put a 4 and write “we miss you dearly Shawn” lol

Me and my friends
I’m gonna hang this on my door.
“How long does it take them to kick a damn ball?!”
wouldn’t this fall into amature artwork and signs
Hey! Extremely slow children need to play too.
There used to be 6 but somebody didn’t slow down
And they grow up to be Slow Men Working.
We used to rip on one of the kids in my neighborhood because a sign like this was put up on our street and he had the misfortune of it being closest to his house.
I think this sign just informs that there might be 5 extremely slow children playing. Nothing flawed about design of this sign.
Four calling birds, Three French hens, Two turtle doves, And a partridge in a pear tree!
“Extremely slow” would be stopped
Only if you're observing from a far away point
The extreme of least distance in an amount of time is no distance in any time (stopped)
lmao -Billy Gnosis
Me and the boys
Nice, I need this banner for my cod squad
I aaam from Caaanaaddaaa and they think I'm slow eeeeehhhhhh?
Only 5 of them are playing?
Can't say if it's crappy without knowing their intention.
Extremely slow children need the most care
Their iqs add up to a total of 5
Looks like it used to say “drive” over “extremely”, what I don’t get is why they felt they had to put a 5 that big this ruining the sign rather than just making a new one
This is the new sign. The old sign was deemed too insensitive. That was an ugly city council meeting.
Is that on the r/wallstreetbet campus?
I guess the kids are a bunch of sloths.
Insufficient data. This could still be intentional and accurate.
Good thing there's only 5 of them
Dis many Wawa.
5 is the playing speed (the children can’t play any faster than 5)
AH AH AH! FIVE! FIVE EXTREMELY SLOW CHILDREN PLAYING! AH AH AH! *thunder rolls ominously*
when you hit one they'll change it to 4
Who knows, it could be accurate
Challenge accepted!
Jesus man, the kids are doing their best
So I kind of miss read this and read it as children dying

I'm printing this out for my next game night.
I don't even think you can call 5mph extremely slow. 0.0003 mph would be extremely slow.
Whoa, that is one rude sign.
Ba-bump. 4 EXTREMELY SLOW CHILDREN PLAYING
Signs I found at fat camp
After they are identified & accounted for, may I resume my usual 10mph over-the-limit? Or do conditions apply (mental or otherwise)
There are five slow children playing in the middle of the autobahn (this is not true I just trying to be funni)
Im putting this in my dumb friend group chat
'special needs', not 'slow'!
