Newscopy: "WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?--Let's assume that you are a law-abiding motorist, with sharp eyes and a very quick brain. As you approach this San Francisco intersection (Fourth and Bryant streets), you will have only one thing to do. Keep driving straight ahead. Going over the Bay Bridge? Turn right, a sign says. But wait! A sign across the corner indicates Bryant is a one-way street left (east, that is). Another sign blocking your way 'confirms' this. You can't stop in the intersection, either, brother. Go straight; figure it out later.".
