Instead of risking your own life to set up a bunch of flowers and photos on the roadside to remember your loved one lost in a tragic accident, the S.C. Department of Transportation is offering memorial signs.

For a fee of $250 you can get your own memory plaque for two years. 

The announcement does not appear to ban or indicate the agency will begin removal of the old ad hoc memorials.

Here's all the info from the press release:

As a Charleston local who enjoys the arts, fashion, and culture here in town, I have a serious bone to pick with ‘the scene.’

Perhaps the big-city and international arts and culture of afar jade me, but I am upset with Charleston. It appears that we, as a city, have too much fondness for our friends. Friends are great.
