Stop signs have been controlling traffic since 1915. While automobile traffic was lighter back then, many city streets were jammed with trains, horses, carriages, and pedestrians. All fighting for the right of way. It was clear that something had to be done and thanks to Detroit, the stop sign was born,
Name: stop sign
What: traffic control device
Located: at street corners and intersections internationally
First erected: Detroit, 1915
A stop sign posted in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Doing this blog over the years, I can honestly say I’ve learned a thing or two and here’s another example. I had no idea that stop signs were eight sided to indicate the level of danger on a highway. I guess we’ve come to take these things for granted and I couldn’t image our streets today without one.
Now, if we can only create an invention for those people who love to run right through these!
