And I thought Deer Foot was bad enough to drive through to begin with..

faulknermania · 4 months

I can't be sure, but I think the sign is saying it wants a trampoline for it's birthday. That, or it needs to pee REALLY badly.

Happened in Calgary, Alberta. Soon after a part of the sign blew right off.

What up 403?

[deleted] · 4 months

Reading what another Traffic Engineer said about this event, is that these signs are designed and wind tested to prevent this sort of thing, but what they didn't account for was rain building up on the bottom of the sign, and that 2mm "ridge" could cause completely different characteristics.

I want to build a highway sign that does that is set up mechanically to wobble heavily whenever even the slightest bit of rain starts up. It'll definitely make people drive more safely.
