first aid

16 Right, 09 Left, 81 Right (or 'I'm a Doctor, Let Me Through!')

First, take a look at the picture below. The sign reads 'Medkit'.


MEDKIT_S

This is the photo of a Medkit on board of an Israeli train. If you still dont get it, the box is locked with a safe-like dial. This gives the old 'break In case of emergency' sign a new meaning. What kind of horrible vandals we must be, if even life saving equipment such as a Medkit has to be locked in a safe? maybe it's to keep junkies away from the morphine.

We could start discussing boring things like priorities, and optimization of objects (when the designer has to balance between several qualities in order to get that perfect mix for the object's purpose), but i think it is much more entertaining to try and imagine what would happen in case of emergency. 16 to the left, 09 to the right, 81 left. or was it 81 to the right?
