Safety Graphic Fun

Posted by Queuebot in Blog & Internet on January 26, 2009 at 10:47 pm


I am so obsessed with safety graphics–those little pictographs showing, quite graphically, what will happen to you and your body part  if you get too close, operate machinery incorrectly or stand in the wrong place at the wrong time–that I had to start a blog to share them all.

Safety Graphics appear where you might expect them to: on a wood chipper or a cement truck. They also appear where you least expect them: on coffee makers and washing machines.

Look for the warning signs! Crushing, burns, serious injury, electrocution and death are right around the corner at all times.

    I'm still partial to this one (can you guess its secret message?)

    Love it.

    What if aliens come, read these signs, and think that they are instructions on how to operate human beings?

    The woman who makes this blog (photo in upper right corner) looks like Chloe from 24.

    I loooove the one on my John Deer tractor. There are a few, but one is about avoiding backing up over babies.
    The imagery is just funny.
