#giraffeonstilts — Public Fediverse posts

So this #ActuallyAutistic man wants to do his civic duty and report a missing sign nearby. There's a right turn only arrow on the ground but no sign at the light. In these here parts, both are usually required.

So I go to the DC DOT website to report the problem. I first go to Roadsign Services, but because I'm asking for a *new* sign, it sends me to Traffic Safety. I go there, tell it that my problem is with a sign, and it says that I might need to report my problem with Roadsign Services.

:headache:

I decided to still submit under Traffic Safey, but WHY does it even suggest me to go back to Roadsign Services??????????????????????????????????? Why do I need to figure out where I should submit my bloody request?

I betcha that a lot of people are confused and just give up.

Oh, and that site was definitely designed by someone who likes to torture people. It looks and behaves like a giraffe on stilts.

At first, I used very spicy language in the "comments" field, but I decided to tone it down, because nobody likes to have other people point out their ineptitude.
