The National Marker Company signage is intended to inform potential violators of a $250 fine. The sign is often used at reserved parking lots for handicap people, ensuring drivers have first-hand information about which areas are not meant for parking and a violation would result in a $250 fine. The legend “$250 FINE” is printed in bold and legible text to make sure that it is visible from a distance and in poor lighting conditions. The rectangular sign is UV resistant, chemical resistant and graffiti proof. The sign has an NMC Sign Muscle coating to protect the text against fading, scratches, scuffing, mold, and moisture.
