Welcome to ‘Flordia’? Road signs spell the state’s name incorrectly... TWICE!

The sign was made by an out-of-state contractor

Another misspelled sign was also discovered this week west of Philadelphia

Sometimes one has to wonder if too much sun is baking Floridians’ brains.

A Florida road sign spelled the state’s name wrong, not once, but twice.

To make matters even worse, the sign spelling the state’s name wrong twice was actually for an exit to two separate colleges – Florida State College and the University of North Florida. Perhaps the person(s) who made the sign would benefit from an English course or two.

The sign somehow made it out onto I-95 near Jacksonville, FL, according to Fox Orlando.

But wait! There’s more! The state department of transportation blamed the spelling error on an out-of-state contractor, according to the station, whose news anchors expressed outrage over Florida having road signs made out of state and said that raises more questions than the one it answered.

This isn’t the only road sign spelling error discovered this week.

A road sign west of Philadelphia, PA spelled the name of a town hilariously wrong. Spelled Ephrata, the exit for the town off a local highway reads ‘Epharta. The town’s name is routinely spelled wrong, according to NBC Philadelphia . At least in this instance the sign was made in-state, by the state department of transportation, according to the station.
