Keep Lift

After nearly 20km of dead straight busy dual carriageway through the flat grey desert, speed limit 120kmh (observed by some), a small fluorescent green sign announces "KEEP LIFT". Twenty metres later the inside lane and hard shoulder disappear behind road-work blockades. My understanding of stopping distances suggests that lift-off would indeed be the only sensible solution in the circumstances.
