If you are evacuating in LA due to the wildfires, Lyft is offering free rides if you type in the code LASAFERIDES.

I typed in the code myself and it’s valid until December 7th at 11:59. Don’t forget that a lot of people don’t own a car, so this information is vital to someone’s safety.

A painter in Los Angeles kept missing his exit for the I-5 on the 110 highway, so he did his research, climbed up the overhead sign, and changed it himself without anyone noticing.

This is Richard Ankrom. He couldn’t find his damn exit, cuz it wasn’t properly labelled.

So he took life by the balls, like any self-respecting Californian would do, and used his sign-painting expertise to fix it himself.

He called it ‘guerilla public service.’ Even got himself an outfit to look official. It worked, obvi.

Caltrans investigated, but the sign was actually up to code. They left it there for 8 years before they made an updated sign.
