font A Shocking Discovery..

[GoStormPlays]

So a couple months ago I had a revelation; the Waffle House logo font looks awfully similar to the font used in US speed limit (and the like) signs.

 

Does anybody know what fonts are used here? Are they the same?

Probably not the exact same typeface. US signs use the appropriately named Highway Gothic

 

Looking at that Waffle House logo from a flatter view shows that they're not the same. Even considering that the one in your picture and both in this one all look different, none seem to match Highway Gothic perfectly. Then again, they're fairly generic typefaces.

At least it's not Clearview!
