After receiving more than 6,700 submissions to their Safety Message Contest, Arizona Department of Transportation officials want you to help them pick winners to be displayed on overhead highway signs statewide.

ADOT's digital overhead signs have received a lot of attention in the past year for the unconventional messages employees write for them. You know the signs they're talking about — does "DRINKING & DRIVING GO TOGETHER LIKE PEAS & GUAC" ring a bell?

Last month, ADOT launched a contest for people to submit their own messages. ADOT received so many submissions that it expanded the number of finalists from 15 to 20 and increased the winners from one to two.

Now, the 20 finalists are up for voting through March 15, and results will be announced in April.

The two messages that receive the most votes will be displayed on overhead signs for one day each in April.

The finalists range from clever and funny to serious — among them:

SINGLE IN HOV? GET A REAL DATE NOT A COURT DATE

LOL! OMG! BRB @ ER

SAGUARO YOU GOING IN SUCH A HURRY? OBEY SPEED LIMIT

A SEATBELT A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY
