the text reads in english: are you so indifferent that you didn’t even notice that this photo is upside down?

Nike (Canada, 2005 – you’re faster than you think.)

Land Rover (Mexico, 2003)

sorry i couldn’t get anything higher quality – but the top image has the subtitle “freeway” and the bottom image “pothole”.

if you’re confused, this board was placed at the top of a staircase from one of the exit’s of a subway train station in zurich.
