I found this damage interesting because

There are high winds here (coastal area) but the frontal area of a sign seems pretty small
I thought they would make signs out of more corrosion resistant materials

These are only a few of tens if not hundreds of downed signs in the area

Those signs seem to have very shallow bases

Agreed. So quality of British manufacturing and workmanship. Now someone has to pay to have them all replaced.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
