At the other extreme are signs like this:
http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=28.25903,-81.764159&spn=0.031828,0.082397&t=k&z=15&layer=c&cbll=28.259019,-81.764282&panoid=Xn0O_XTCa26l3-SxRHJrkA&cbp=12,323.76,,0,11.47
Usually you see them at bridges (since different truck configurations
will put different loads on the bridge) but I don't recall there being
