What on Earth Do You Think This Japanese Warning Sign Means?
Or, let's hear your best caption suggestion
Warning signs use graphics to communicate, independent of language, a potential danger. Most of the time they're pretty clear: Don't touch this, you'll turn into a skull, this thing can explode. Other times the message is a little more mixed, as with this image Richard F., a friend of mine living in Japan, posted on social media:

Car with Pikachu tail appears here and may scare your hat off
Do not throw lightning at passing cars, you may drop your hat.
Beware of Raiden

Ahh nevermind I'm disqualified *deletes explanation*
Look out for electric cars, because they don't make any sound?

Beware tire shocks. Back in the '90s, certain model Hondas were known for giving toll takers shocks due to the composition of the tires.
seems like "watch out for cars", or maybe vice versa.. "watch out for pedestrians"
Obviously "Watch out for Teslas! They shoot lightnings!"
