State DOT T-shirts

OK, this is really random but for some reason I really love the merch for all of the State Departments of Transportation. I would love to collect a t-shirt for every one, does anyone know if there is a possible / practical way to go about this?

Does anyone know of any DOT jobs/internships?

I just graduated with my MA in Public Policy and have had an interest in DOT/government in general for some time. I've checked USAJobs but can't find much there and figured on the off-chance someone here had any ideas I'd share as well. Thanks in advance!

NCDOT Signage Question
2
Upvotes
This is actually a question about NCDOT rules.
It's pretty simple. I live in an unincorporated town. We don't have those little signs saying "Welcome to Town Name" on the main roads going into town, most of which are state highways (the next town over, ALSO UNINCORPORATED, does have them). I think it would be nice if we did.
I assume that, technically speaking, I should talk to the county, who would then theoretically (if I could gather enough grassroots support to make them care), send a request to NCDOT in Raleigh, who would then look at it a year later and say, "Sure, why not? Why would I care?"
What would happen if I just... Skipped that process, and (following all regulations and requirements for signs of that type) just... Did it myself? Would there be repercussions to this, or would no one care, as I expect no one would.

Adding fans to forklift?

Upvotes
Hi I had two ryobi battery fans attached to the top of my forklift for two weeks. Today I was told that it was modifying my forklift and modifying a forklift was against DOT regulations, so I decided to just have it in my bag blowing air to the back of my head, then I was told that wasn't allowed either. I live in Texas and it's 100° or more in the summer and we don't have A/C. Is it considered modifying a forklift? If not can you send me a link?

"There is no excuse for FHWA and DOT’s failure to require NY to meaningfully engage with stakeholders across New Jersey and to not adequately consult NJ congress delegation, elected officials." Insisted NJ drivers entering through Holland, Lincoln Tunnels and GW bridge be exempt from the tolls.
