Info from Licensor: The police took me to the side of my house and informed me that I could not have those signs as it was illegal to possess them. I told them I didn’t know that and that a friend had given them to me, but I had no problem giving them to the officers. So I took them into my backyard and ripped the signs out of the ground that had been there for a few years. I took a post-hole digger and buried them 4ft into the ground for yard ornaments. I then handed them to the officers and started recording. They said they wouldn’t fit in the car, so their only option was to walk all the way from my house, down to the police station carrying these huge intersection signs. This happened a while ago; no charges were pressed to my knowledge.
