THAT CANNOT BE MISTAKEN FOR AN OFFICIAL SIGN AND IS
PLACED WITH THE APPROVAL OF THE STATE HIGHWAY
ADMINISTRATION.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 66 1/2, §11-205.
Subsection (a)(4) of this section is new
language derived from the last clause of the
first sentence of Art. 89B, §103. The
specific penalty in present §103 is deleted in
deference to the standard penalty in Title 27
of this article, already applicable to the
balance of this section.
In subsection (c) of this section, the phrase
"and ... placed with the approval of the State
Highway Administration" is new language
derived from the second sentence of Art. 89B,
§103.
