Why can't street signs be in Spanish and speed limits in Spanish ?

Latina

I KNOW IM MEXICAN AND I THINK THAT WOULD BE AWSOME CUZ PEOPLE THAT CANT READ ENGLISH AND ONLY SPANISH IT WOULD HELP ALOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hahayeahright

Why not vietnamese?? You are an idiot lady.

Street signs are probably in Spanish in Spanish speaking countries.

The Joker

THIS ISN'T HISPANIC WORLD!! This is the United States, English is the first language, the best language, a buisness language, a common language, ENGLISH IS EVERYTHING!

So... NO DEAL!

Because most Americans would not be able to read them. Besides if the government started posting signs in Spanish with TAX PAYER'S money, there would be a revolt heard around the world. If you want to speak Spanish so bad, go to Mexico. There are probably a few left there you can still have a conversation with.

If that's your aim, why don't you go where they are in Spanish? No one will stop you.
And speed signs are in numbers, do you have a problem with those too?

brunnetebabee89

hunny, this aint mexico. if u hate america so much and think it should be mexico, why dont u go therE>>?

retrowfmk

You mean here in the states?? You are in AMERICA. You know that saying about "When in Rome, do as the ROMANS do!"??

The Git!

Why don't you go to Spain, as they will be there!!!

Are you in the U.S.A? English is the national language.

Ophelia

For the same reason they are not in English in Mexico. Go ahead, ask them to do it. They will laugh you out of the country.

they are in Spain

Leah Kelley

Because this is an ENGLISH speaking country.

Clarkie

They ARE in Spanish speaking countries

Lindey

because we are in A-M-E-R-I-C-A

AbbyMacDabby

uuum because we live in America where the national language is English.

They are in Mexico, a couple of countries in South America, and in Spain. This is the USA where English is the Dominate language, which BTW is a Universal Language of the world.

they are in mexico,go there to read them..

chilover

ONce again, get up off your lazy butt and learn English or don't DRIVE in our country..We have enough people that don't knwo how to drive..Go to your own country and get your wish

Why do I get the feeling you are a whitey trying to egg on the bigots? Could it be the perfect English in your question, showing you have no need for Spanish street signs?

Cost. I damn sure don't want my tax dollars going into bi lingual traffic signs, costing twice the price, for am immigrant too "whatever" to learn the language - or the international symbols. If I went to a Spanish language country, I would not think of being egotistical enough to think the street signs should also speak English.

normobrian

They can. They just aren't.

Kendra

Because this country(U.S) is majority of English speaking people.
But if you want to go somewhere with many street signs I recommend that you go to Central America.

tirebiter

'cause this is the USA and "american" is spoken here.

RAIDERBETO

If you did that, in order to be fair to other nationalities you would have to put all signs in all different languages, which would not be cost feasible.

Justme06

This is america helllo.

Boriqua P

Because even though America has been invaded by Spanish speaking immigrants,The universal Language of America is "English".That would be a small bit of an in incovience to Puertoricans who are legal citizens as Puerto Rico is a US Providence but,most are smart and proud enough to learn English.

avatar2068

I keep seeing people post that there are no dumb questions or dumb answers...well, I don't know how to type anything that translates as whatever that noise Carlos Mencia makes is...but try I shall. DUN,DUH,DAAAAAHHHHH, this one is for you
AMERICA BABY!!!!!!.....LOVE IT OR leave quielly.
Seriously, I think you only asked this question to piss people off, I don't believe for one second that you, or anyone else is actually so ignorant as to believe the United States should or would post speed signs in multiple languages, so, are you happy now? You managed to get me to lower my own standards and respond initially like most others did to your "question". The citzens of this country(the United States) may be complacent and self absorbed, but we are sick of apologizing to the rest of the world for being better at EVERYTHING than the rest of you are. If the rest of the world thinks it is so great, so smart, then why did so many of your best and brightest opt to come here, learn the language, and the culture, and escape your wonderful countries?

They are in other countries.

sassy

In the United States? We could get the universal signs that some countries use.. you know the kind..pictures.
Hun, this is American, learn the language. I would fully expect to know at least enough to know what the signs mean, if I were in another country. Having some basic concept of the language is always vital!
here, we speak, and read English. Sorry.

Teresa

Because in this country ENGLISH is the predominate language. If you can't read it, you shouldn't be driving! You scare the *rap out of me.
