The sign is 100% done this way on purpose to attract attention.

For images where the text reads correctly left to right, but visual cues (like colouration, vertical proximity, or horizontal separation) lead you to try to read it top to bottom.
This is similar to, but distinct from, the more widely known “DontDeadOpenInside” format. In that case, the text reads correctly top to bottom, but visual cues (like colouration, horizontal proximity, or vertical separation) lead you to try to read it left to right.

I was thinking the same.
Normally when you see the sign you just see "nothing" or "impossible" . But only on certain angle you see "nothing is impossible" , implying something that looks impossible is not impossible just look at it from a different angle.
Which is fun, but still people who are driving by and just see one side, or see that sign just one side from their window all the time, and are mildly depressed, might not appreciate it.
It do be like that sometimes.
You got it, sign!
