What is a personal line arrow versus a permenant line arrow?
Some people will say a personal line arrow has my name on it-can't read that very well in a silt out. Or the line arrow has a notch,drilled hole,rounded edges etc etc-will a team exiting in an emergency and under stress,stop and feel this line arrow to determine if it is personal or not? Probably not,but if they do then they have to stop and consume valuable time (air) to figure this out.
Basically if all line arrows follow the rule they point toward the closest exit regardless if they are permenant or personal,then we don't have accidents. When line arrows are contradictory then we have a history of accidents or nears misses.
