There's 3 new signs like this posted in Jerada representing a donkey or mule drawn wagon. In close proximity to most cities and towns, vehicles share road space with wagons transporting souk goods, produce, etc. In Jerada, however, most wagons are carrying coal from the remains of the French turned Moroccan mines closed two decades ago, with drivers' faces and clothing blackened. They're transporting the coal outside of town, where a full load can fetch 500 Dhms. Therefore, these signs for me memoralize those men with charred faces.
