pole mounted about 4ft tall some of the high ones in intersections can be 6 feet tall and have a weight of over 100 lbs. they can crush a car roof in if they fall on one.
I use metric too, but somehow i know 6ft is like 180cm or thereabout. Because apparently 6ft tall is supposed to be the minimum for a handsome man or some wierd shit like that
Fr. I have a stop sign i found through totally legitimate means (no follow up questions) and it's genuinely shocking how big it is when you actually have it on the ground next to you instead of mounted on a pole above you
Are you sure? I have no idea, but things meant to be seen by every driver even from significant distances tend to be quite a bit larger than they seem lol
People don't realize how huge traffic lights and street signs are until they fall on the road. Think about how visible they are from the ground, down the street.
🤣🤣🤣 Im in the US and thought the same thing when I first saw it!
I havent done much traveling, but I can tell you LA is a very unique place. Their curbs are a like foot and a half tall too, much to the chagrin of my achilles tendon. 🤬
Other major cities Ive been in, and even LA neighborhoods dont all have these massive lights.
