    It’s nice to see a few folks pushing back. This whole thing has the narrative of the ol’ incompetent state with its endless red tape and arbitrary nonsense!

    Sometimes those things are true and it can be a pain, but it’s the same reason we don’t go out for vigilante justice. It wasn’t arbitrarily installed and no one noticed it because there’s no reason to check things like that.

      There’s totally a reason to check things like that. If there were any accidents or reports of issues it would be investigated. If it was a common hazard, cops might even set up a trap to catch cars making illegal turns.

        To check to make sure signs that look identical don’t have the numbers altered? Sure, I guess.
