Maybe the case. Probably is. But I was talking the suburbs.. One to
another. Woods on both sides of the road. At night.
Take a look at this, in terrain view, then satellite view.

Note: Back then, many of the intersections of these roads were marked
with a rough cut square granite post stuck in the ground near a
granite rock wall with the name of one route number carved on one
side, and the other one (or two) carved on another side. They were 24
inches tall. Invisible in winter once the road was plowed and they
were buried. Invisible at night unless you stopped and shown your
lights on them. Plus, the plows sometimes knocked them over, they
became overgrown, never to be seen for years. And, was the side marked
"Rte. 2" parallel to Route 2, or perpendicular, so it was readable
when you were ON Rte 2. I for one never figured it out.

I am very pleased to see that others are taking the heat that used
to be born by the sainted drivers of Boston, Mass.

This thing that you see,
Why in the world,
Would it excite me?
