It seems that, no matter how many times we go over this, we STILL have a few
folks out there with numbers we can't read from the trailer. This is due to
one of the following factors:
1) Shoe-polish numbers on car window
2) Only one set of numbers, on the side away from the trailer at start
3) Poor contrast to body color
4) Too small
Okay, repeat after me: Numbers should be at least 8" high with a 1.25"
stroke, in a color contrasting with the car's body color. Class letters
should be smaller (mine are 4" high). A couple of us in the trailer during
my work group (group 6, if you're wondering) were discussing the possiblity
of forcing people with number problems as we described above to work the
trailer, on the theory that this might make them see what we're complaining
about.
C'mon, folks, this isn't hard. It isn't expensive either.
