I changed a road sign to make my commute easier 13 years ago.

On my daily commute there was very inconvenient 'no right turn between 7am-9:30am' sign. I had to make the right turn abut 7:20am every day. For a long time I would just break the law and make my turn any way or go around if I thought there was too many people watching. But (maybe out of boredom) I did a bit of research and found the ticket for the illegal turn was more than buying a sign from the supplier that makes signs for our area and several other locations. So I ordered a new sign that was 'no right turn between 7:30am- 9:30am'. I figured it was a good investment. I went to the trouble of buying it through an alias and having it sent to a location that was not at all near to where I was. Real cloak and dagger stuff, but it was part of the fun.

Then in the middle of the night I went and removed two bolts and put up the new sign.

At first I was expecting for it to be removed or someone look into to it, but it is more than a decade later and no one ever noticed or changed it.

BTY, Yes I did think of just taking it down, but I figured that would be noticed by someone, and to be honest the whole scheme of getting a new one was part of the fun.
