Yeah know what you mean. The example I attach is not North or South Island but I saw in Aussie.

How amazing to say "TIRED? POWERNAP NOW"

To me a power nap is what you take at your desk, at a meeting, on the train etc and you just do it where you are. To take one while driving or riding and "NOW" to me means go to sleep right now at the wheel or behind the bars and then what likely consequence?

Holy Hell! I have seen signs similar even here and I can't see them doing anything significant.
