A massive Trump sign popped up on the hills along the 405 Freeway in the Sepulveda Pass on Tuesday morning.
The sign supporting President Trump faced northbound lanes near Getty Center Drive. The white lettering appears to be around 10 feet tall and mimics the style of the landmark Hollywood sign.
It was first reported at 6:41 a.m., according to the California Highway Patrol’s incident log, which referred to it as a “traffic hazard.”
The sign had been placed in an area with dry brush, and the reporting party was apparently concerned it could spark a blaze, the log stated.
...
The sign — which was on private property — has since been knocked down by crews because it created a traffic hazard, as motorists slowed down to take photos, according to Eric Menjivar of Caltrans.
I bet the land owner could fight it in court and win on 1A rights. The problem is, hiring lawyers would not be cheap. How is this sign any more of a distraction than a bill board?
