About 2 blocks from where I live there is a median in the middle of the intersection. It is a cement circle with the ugliest patch of dying vegetation I have ever seen. It is strange because while at first glance it looks like it is a roundabout intersection (which is stupid considering the lack of traffic that goes through there) there are stop signs on the corners, thus ruining the positives of the roundabout (which is even stupider considering how much traffic goes through there.)
For the last 10 months I have been annoyed by this median. It is stupid and pointless and I hate it. Then, while driving home the other night I saw something that made it all worth it. As I was coming home from the bar at 2 A.M. I saw that a car had driven up over the median crushing the sings on it. The funniest part about this was that I don't know how long the car had been there, but I know that the driver wasn't there anymore. I suspected a drunk driving incident where the driver just ran after realizing what they did. Either that, or they honestly thought that was a valid parking space.
Unfortunately I did not take pictures of the car as I drove by that night... but I did take pictures of the aftermath of the intersection the next morning.
Take that stupid median... and the city planners that made you a reality.
