It could have come from a low-hanging tree branch as well. We'll just never know why. :Tongue1:

I actually thought these were odd signals before I realized that they just look that way because of how the images were stitched together! :oops: :LOL3:

Beacons like that at stop signs are very common in rural parts of Florida.

I'm referring to how the signals aren't facing the opposite direction.

I'm not sure if I follow what you mean by the signals not facing the opposite direction.

It is kind of self-explanatory although I could have explained that better, typically when span wire or a mast arm is over a piece a road, the signals would be facing towards the intersection.

I still don't think I'm following... could you perhaps share an example of what you mean as comparison?
