  2. jam says:

    Oh noes! Which way do I go?

  3. mana says:

    hard drive?

  4. Willian says:

    It’s just to simple people: Turn left if you are in the right, turn right if you are in the left, so now you will began a new infinite loop =D

    • Maggielicious says:

      Oh, wow – I totally get this. Even picture it in my head… Which hurts now from thinking so scientifically about something like this! Ow – physics/logic just broke my thinkerbox.

    Die Kärntner Wasserschädl!

  9. Merri says:

    I disagree. Given the look of the crossing, it would be logical to ask those who turn left to start from the right, so that they can turn without need to manoeuver.

    And risks are mitigated by the fact that zipping is official in Austria and they do it with discipline.

  10. muliku says:

    what the? :D

  11. Josef says:

    Typically Austria :-)

  12. stunnedbyblueimvuavataravatars says:

    natural selection

  13. Madness says:

    No, this is fine because they drive on the other side of the road there. … oh, wait …

  14. Bob says:

    Austria? Really? Why do the stop signs read STOP instead of STOPP?

  15. OOYYO says:

    I bet there’s alot of crashes there….;)

  16. anonymous says:

    Reach the end of the street, ant proceed to crash into the car next to you…

  17. Well says:

    Well, it’s a bus stop. ONLY busses are departing from there, it’s not a normal street.

    The turning angle to the left and right is so narrow that busses that turn to the left _have_ to depart from the right lane and vice-versa.

    Disappointing , I know… :)

  18. Boredguestuser says:

    46°39’03,26″N
    14°18’50,81″E

    Its a short one way passage for the busses to turn around…for a long bus the left turn is impossible…
    still retarded notheless.

  19. N11 says:

    OK you win…

    Which way did he go, George? Which way did he go?

    ♫We’re on a road to nowhere♫

  23. zainn says:

    you idiots, the roads are opposite in international roads like these. they go left like we go right and right like we go left. not a fail whatsoever

    • Hcdragon says:

      You sir, are the fail. It would still be causing cars to turn into eachother if it wasn’t a bus depot. They are not actually failing in real life, but your logic is.

  24. Also, kannst du auch Englisch sprechen?

  25. Matt Parkins says:

    Reminds me of the hook turns in Melbourne. First time I saw it I was like WHHATT?????

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hook_turn

  26. Kamenka says:

    That’s because of buses. One stands at the right lane and goes on to the left and behind this bus is another bus, he goes on to the right and when the bus which goes to the left is standing there, the one which goes to the right could not drive so they had to solve it in this way XD.

  27. Mike says:

    A really big fail! XD

  28. [Alαn™] says:

    How very self-centered of them!

  29. Snowman says:

  30. hase says:

    wieder einmal ein Beweis dafür, dass ein Foto nur ein Ausschnitt der Realität ist …
    Die 2 Fahrspuren sind für die STW-Busse (Endstation Annabichl) – bei der Ampel muss der Bus um fast 150 Grad abbiegen, … hier gibts keinen öffentlichen Verkehr !!!

  41. Maaaaaax says:

    OMG i live about one mile away from there :D

    • KWR says:

      @Maaaaaax,
      So can you confirm the story on it’s raison d’etre?
      (Post by Well on June 29, 2010 at 6:12 am EST Australia)
      (Your post reads 9:21am to me for conversions)

    • tahrey says:

      Yeah, fill us in. I’m with the “bus station exit” idea (or possibly the exit of an industrial facility that articulated trucks may be leaving thru).

      As they need extra room to maneouvre, you have to keep well over to the right to go left around that wall, and over to the left to turn right and not clip the kerb.

      Still, you’d think the average large vehicle driver would know all this already. Perhaps it’s a warning to any car drivers who have accidentally wandered up this way.

      • Maaaaaax says:

        yeah you are quite right with your guess. Its the exit of larger bus station and the arrows are painted this way, because otherwise the bus couldnt go right. so cars aren’t permittet to drive there anyway. still i can understand that it reallly looks funny ;)

  42. KWR says:

    Oh, OK. My post reads July 1 at 4:55pm so looks like the times show as site location. ignore my conversion info!

  43. cristian says:

    it’s not a fail!
    it’s read this way:
    left arrow pointing to right indicates you need to move some to the right in order to view the vehicles coming from the left

    right arrow pointing to left indicates you can only turn this direcction

    it’s dangerous to turn right directly to the STOP sign cos vehicles coming from left behind you back can causes a collition

  44. ihagan says:

    Just an observation: If this is in austria, why are the stop signs in english?

    • Julya says:

      Read the comments, STOP signs are international, they are the same in the UK, in the US, in Spain, Holland, Belgium, France, Germany, Austria…need I go on?

  45. Kay says:

    Haha, yeah right, it’s fake? read the comments, several people have posted the answer.

    This is a bus terminal in the city I live, right by the airport. It’s just a little loop beside the street with 2 bus stations, but for a long bus the turning angle of this crossheads to go back onto the street is to narrow, so they have to switch lanes to turn back onto the main street in either direction.

    No mystery, no fake, but it IS funny to look at ;)

    There where some accidents!
