This is the most telling quote:
"According to the blog i-hacked.com, some commercial road signs ... can be easily altered because their instrument panels are frequently left unlocked and their default passwords are not changed."
No excuse for this other than sheer laziness. The same thing happened with a lot of early Digital Computer servers, where the sysop didn't bother changing the password from the default. Hackers would dial until they found a data line, log in using the default, and hey presto, they had access to the entire computer system of some very large and well-known companies.
