On those triangular concrete-stop sign things, I never know which way to turn, when making a left turn off the main highway. I sometimes go around and come back, but sometimes I swerve inside. It's confusing to an old man like me. Understandable.

No major brands involved but a few days ago our FD went to a rollover at our small town center. A witness told me that she saw the rollee stop and then go despite the proximity of an oncoming car. The skid marks tell that the driver of the other car did a good job of trying to stop but he hit the rollee in the rear quarter causing her to go sideways until she hit the curb and rolled. I figured that it had to be a twenty something or teen until the husband arrived and I was asked to take him to his wife in the back of our rescue. They were both gray haired!

Some would say "You Can't Stop A Deere". LOL

Understandable??? Really?? If the lives of other people depend on it? I hope I am not meeting you on any roads, especially if you are towing a trailer with a tractor on it. Maybe you should review what the meaning of road signs are....see link. Triangular stop sign...? Likely from the time you started driving all Stop signs have been octagonal...8 sides...a triangular sign is a Yield sign. The type of sign that you are referring to is likely a ...diamond... which is a ...caution... type of sign. Sorry if this sounds ranty, but you seem nonchalant about messing with other people?s lives.

Red man, reread the post. He is refering to the CONCRETE triangular curb, Not the sign.

TimWafer · Apr 30, 2020

Im still confused... What are the concrete triangle curbs you are talking about? Cant picture it...

First photo, to the left of the Deere pickup. Must be an Iowa thing.

Sorry, fbh I do apologize but what I took away from your comment really seemed to stir me up. I still don?t understand exactly what is being referred to, a movable concrete barrier used in construction to divide traffic or a median divider?

Okay smoke, I see what is being referred to thanks!

What time is it when two Chevys hit ? Tin to tin.

ss55 · Apr 30, 2020

Did one of the pickups run the stop sign or pull out in front of the other?

I?d say the Kubota dealer won, drove around the wreckage, and made his way out to the farm, and sealed the deal. Other salesman never showed up!

Red MN...... In pic 1 look at the shape and make-up of the item 4 feet below the stop sign. It is a white concrete triangle base. I think that is what the gentleman was referring to.

Janicholson · Apr 30, 2020

The stop sign in the image is planted in (sticking up from) a three sided curb bounded island. That island is the item being discussed. Jim

No--Most Iowa farmers still have USA pride and use Green or Red tractors---Tee

TimWafer · Apr 30, 2020

I see what you are referring to now. I cant recall ever seeing one like that before. must not use them around here. Where are they positioned? Are there lanes on either side? If you are facing the stop sign, is the right hand side for right turn only? Then the left hand side for straight ahead and left turns? Hard to tell in that photo.

Just like above--In Iowa we still have USA pride and real tractor dealers still drive the big three!!---Tee

Fbh44,

You are likely not the only one. They have been removing them around here. One was removed at the end of the county road near my place last year. I never had a problem with them, but it seems they are obsolete.

Bruce from Can. · Apr 30, 2020

Maybe so, but I?d wager that Kubota sells more tractors in USA than they sell in Japan. To me, they are all import foreign built tractors. Or do they still build some Versatile tractors in Manitoba, Canada. Or are they Kubota tractors now too?

Tim older post don t know if you will be back to view this, I am looking at it again to make sure my dust storm had settled. Yes, exactly as you described and quite common in Iowa as I have driven there a fair bit, in fact secondary roads from Fort Dodge to I80 4 times a year. Still a little confused on how the gentleman would be confused on which side of the sign to go. The tricky ones are where the intersecting road joins the other at a curve. If you are not familiar with the area you can definitely wind up in the wrong place on those. With a trailer in that case the design of that intersection becomes way more dangerous.
