Children may dart out into the street. You usually see such signs near elementary schools.
I stand corrected. Here's a story on the signs.

I don't know the exact meaning. But you will see these signs commonly in states bordering Mexico. It basically means to watch out for people (more than likely illegal immigrants) who may dart out into the street or freeway because they are trying to avoid/hide from state troopers at the state or county lines. They just want you to be careful so you don't hit them.

You were down by the border. put two and two together. They are not looking left and right all they see is what is in front of them at that point. Whole families have been hit in that area. I have actually seen a child being pulled much like the image, they can't keep up.

That sign is put up wherever illegal aliens are expected to be darting across the road. I see them on Interstate 5 north of San Diego.

That's so funny,. I'm from California and my In-Laws are from Illinois when they saw that sign and i explained they started cracking up and wanted a picture!!
But yea it means be cautious for the illegal aliens running across the freeway.

Lost4Ever got it right. It means watch out for illegal aliens crossing the highway. First one I saw was in San Diego which is near the Mexican border.

beware of illegal aliens crossing road. I'm a truck driver and seen it many times in different south west border states.

i am guessing, but i think it is to warn you that people may be crossing the street at this point, even though it is not a crosswalk.
So "Look out from people running across the road here."

that sign is to watch out for illegal aliens like the mexicans crossing the border to enter the US.
