Description

A rigid steel post beside a highway can be deadly. That's why many US sign posts stand on a breakaway slip base: two plates clamped with bolts that slide apart when a car hits, so the post swings up on a hinge and the car rolls underneath. The catch: over-tighten those bolts and the post stops breaking. #shorts #engineering #roads
