Speed limits can be difficult for even the most experienced motorist to monitor when there isn't ample signage - however, drivers in White Lake, Michigan, faced a different, but still impossible task, with the most complicated sign we've seen.

'You practically have to stop to read it,' said local resident Matt Smith.

'I’m thinking of printing out the speeds and attaching it to my dashboard.'

From a very specific 6:49-7:15am, motorists must keep within the 25mph speed limit.

It then switches to 45mph for just 37 minutes before returning to the slower limit at 7:52am.

I'm guessing someone went zooming by at aoubt 7:10 and claimed "no children where present" to avoid a ticket from a Speed Limit when children are present sign... so they made a sign corresponding to a schools class periods
