Buggy Signs Across America
Posted on February 3, 2011 in Amish Communities, Amish Culture
The familiar yellow buggy warning sign tells drivers “Amish ahead”. But there is no standardized design. So the signs you see can vary.

Below, twelve examples of Amish buggy warning signs you’ll find across America – and one from outside our borders.

By the way I wish I could have found a sign from Allen County, Indiana. Signs in that community depict an open horse-drawn vehicle, the only kind permitted by Allen County Amish.

Finally, an unusual sign from the country of Belize. Belize is the only Central American country where English is considered the official language. Donald Kraybill’s Concise Encylopedia of Amish, Brethren, Hutterites, and Mennonites notes that a few conservative Mennonite groups exist in the country, including horse driving Old Colony Mennonites as well as Hoover Old Order Mennonites. {tag para capital: Cidade de Belize}

We’ll try to update this post with new signs. If you have any to add, feel free to email them to me at ewesner@gmail.com. Or you can post them directly to the Amish America Facebook page.
