Instead of a "riders dismount" sign there should be a "exercise caution" or "SLOW DOWN" notice. It would be a sign written with mutual respect in mind rather than the authoritarian bull**** that is up right now.

Yeah, the sign is just there to piss you off. Or maybe the insurance company and the safety inspectors and regulators came up with that to protect the ignorant. I'm quite sure the sign says "riders dismount" because someone in a position of liability decided that was the best way to protect your and their respective asses.
