1. /-rooted paths are relative to DocumentRoot.

2. Bad requests will sometimes ignore ErrorDocument.

    <p>Although most error messages can be overriden, there are certain
    circumstances where the internal messages are used regardless of the
    setting of <directive module="core">ErrorDocument</directive>.  In
    particular, if a malformed request is detected, normal request processing
    will be immediately halted and the internal error message returned.
    This is necessary to guard against security problems caused by
    bad requests.</p>
