MUTCD-CA W86 (California) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz - Design Description

This shot glass features the instantly recognizable design of the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) W86 (CA) warning sign, a critical road safety symbol.

Artwork & Visual Elements

The artwork replicates the sign's official color scheme: bold, black lettering and border set against a vibrant, fluorescent pink background. This distinctive color choice is intentional, used to immediately signal a temporary hazard or incident, demanding immediate attention from the viewer.

Significance and Meaning

The design prominently displays the warning text: "FLOODING AHEAD TURN AROUND DON'T DROWN". This crucial message emphasizes the dangers of driving through flooded roadways, advocating for the safety practice of turning around rather than risking travel through an unsafe area.

The W86 (CA) designation, subtly incorporated into the design, identifies the sign as a California-specific warning, emphasizing its adherence to state traffic control standards. The visual impact and concise warning are intended to communicate the hazardous condition of flooding and underscore the importance of safe driving practices.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” sturdy, stack-friendly, and built to handle frequent service without fuss.

These shot glasses feel solid in the hand thanks to a thick, weighty base that keeps them steady on busy bar tops. The walls are even and clear, giving a nice, unobstructed view of the pour; the rim is smoothed for comfortable sipping.

Theyโ€™re engineered for regular use: consistent dimensions, dependable weight, and a simple silhouette that suits both casual venues and more formal tasting counters. Designed to perform rather than show off.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and clean presentation.
  • Capacity: 1.5 oz (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” standard shot measure.
  • Base: heavy solid glass base that reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Construction: restaurant-grade durability for frequent handling and washing.
  • Print-ready: suitable for single-sided print applications that withstand typical use.

Perfect for quick pours, samplers, and neat shots. Their compact footprint makes them easy to place on trays and tasting lines, while the heavier base keeps things steady during service.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours โ€” less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
  2. Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
  3. Events: robust enough for pop-ups, festivals, and busy bartending shifts.

Storage tip: store upright and avoid tight stacking to protect rims and preserve clarity.

Dishwasher-safe for everyday cleaning โ€” place on the top rack and use a normal household cycle. Repeated exposure to very high commercial temperatures can shorten glass life, so choose gentler programs where practical.

When you want to extend clarity and finish: hand-wash with warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft cloth; dry right away to avoid water spots. Handle by the body (not the rim) to reduce accidental chipping.

One size only: 1.5 oz (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
