I have an idea: how about putting up flashing lights on the signs where the speed limit is 25 mph? Trucks turn over more frequently on I-70 Eastbound onto 270 northbound on the Westside of Columbus. The southbound exit is marked '55' mph, while the northbound is marked '25' mph, but they are the EXACT same size numbers. I'll bet if they make the '25' twice the size and add flashing lights, there will be no more turnovers there.
