The slight inconvenience it caused you (after all, you were just lying in bed reading) is worth it if it allows for many more people to be on the lookout for the vehicle (there aren't digital signs everywhere on the highway either). I honestly can't think of a better way of informing people of urgent events (natural disasters, mainly).

It was actually pretty cool the night in June, when we had 5 tornadoes touch down in the area, since I don't have TV and was too busy to notice the weather outside to check the weather online.
