The mayor of a California city said an error by contractors was responsible for the zigzagging lane lanes on a city road that left some residents scratching their heads.
SNIP
Velazquez said the lines were supposed to be slightly curved, but the instructions were apparently misinterpreted by the contractors who painted the lines.
"Basically, it just comes down to the contractor. Somebody didn't read the plans correctly," Velazquez said. "It was not designed to look very odd."

I think if you follow them while drunk you end up driving straight.
Perfect for drunk driving…
Drugs are bad.....mmmm’kay?..........................
Looks like the stretch of road Kramer was responsible for.
Hire drunken illegals and this is what you get.
Better than speed bumps for slowing traffic.
Not that I ever done it but I have heard the best way to get back at a boss is to follow their instruction exactly.
Yeah. Go with that.
California drives won’t even notice.

Probably hired Pedro or Juan to do the painting.😉
There, fixed it.
Apparently many CA drivers are confused by the straight lines, too.
It’s likely because two years ago they were driving a water buffalo.
Maybe the design engineer graduated from a woke California school?
Looks like the lady who “restored” the painting of Jesus in Spain has branched out to other painting activities

BS. That’s just dodging responsibility. The person in the local government responsible for contract administration failed to make the written specifications and verbal direction clear before the contract was awarded.
Its a best practice to hold a pre-work meeting to make sure the parties have a mutual understanding of the specs, scope, timing and costs of the contract. Evidently that wasn’t done.
Velazquez said the contractor will repaint the road at no additional cost to taxpayers. OK, but the contractor will recover their extra cost somewhere down the road (pun intended).
Lines that curve in an otherwise straight road induce the driver to slow down.
This was the contractor dragging the City for their stupid psyop.
Low bidder perhaps. Not always a good idea to go with the lowest offeror.
