Here in the UK we have slashes through many of the red-bordered road signs, but not all of them. People often misunderstand the ones that don't - for instance, these mean "no motor vehicles" and "no cars" respectively:

The council probably collects a lot of money in fines from people misunderstanding those two in particular

misunderstanding those two

The one on the left is warning your about Arnold Schwarzenegger, the T-800 model Terminator. He could ambush you at anytime riding on a motorcycle he ~~stole~~ acquired from a bar along with a shotgun.

The one on the right is warning you that you're dealing with a T-1000 and it has already merged with your car, thus, invisible to you. You are already dead, the liquid metal will slide to the front passenger seat, then stab you to death.
