Looks like some kind of bucket was put on the camera?

I wonder if vandals did it? Although you would think Google would have known about it.

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

Kind of an interesting setup. Incandescent signals too!

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

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?
