Imagine a narrow, winding, mountain road. Imagine road construction that closes one lane. Imagine that the road construction is extensive enough so that it requires flagmen with radios at each end. Imagine what happens when both ends of the construction zone let cars through at the same time.
On my way back through in the afternoon, the cause became apparent. Apparently, one of the flagmen decided that holding the stop sign and tuning it was just to much work. He got around this by sticking it in a traffic cone with the stop side towards traffic. That way he could just lean against his truck and not be bothered with it. If he wanted people to go, he just had to wave them through. If he wanted them to stop, he could just ignore them and let the stop sign do the talking. You have to admit, it is a lot easier than standing with the sign and constantly having to turn it around.
