"Waiting to carpool, Removed a sign with no tool!"


          

Had no wire cutters which I use to cut the plastic wire ties.
So I just twisted the corplast sign clockwise and it broke its plastic wire tie.
Aurora now has lots of staked white "date.org" type signs.
Three northbound Havana before Alameda. Could not get them due to traffic.
At fresh red signals, we often jump out, remove a sign and run back to the vehicle before the signal changes.

A new version of the Chinese Fire Drill, eh?

I once dated a woman who owned a tandem bicycle. On our
rides, she would often jump off the back to lay down a
bandit sign when we stopped for a red light or stop sign.

Funny. I have thought the same thing.
I am a firefighter and my wife is Chinese.
Sometimes she'll jump out and pull a sign if I can stop next to it at a fresh red signal.
While she is out, I roll down the passenger rear window and she inserts the sign through the window.
Then gets in and buckles up.

We also have a tandem bicycle, but have not been able to find signs when we ride. I do wear a backpack in which we can haul them.

Yep, this method works like a champ with tie wraps.
