There is no one who enforces signs that are non-compliant. A non-compliant sign is simply non-enforceable.
Right, which I did find out from the young lady, but her statement was that they would enforce them as an attempt to comply.

When I called (a whole bunch of people in state government) I finally reached someone who claimed to "have been" an attorney and that "they" (the state) consider coming close to be a good faith effort and that they would prosecute. I asked if that meant that I could do 49 in a 40mph zone, as keeping it in the 40s would be a "good faith effort" and she didn't like the comment. She suggested that I might want to be a test case, and honor I declined.

If I recall correctly, I was referred from DPS CHL people to the Attorney General's office, to the Secretary of State, back to . . . until I got to that young lady back in DPS CHL.

All I wanted to know was who enforces that segment of the law, ie If I spot a non-compliant sign, who do I report it to? Her take was that they ALL comply.
