Ғылым және технология
The New York City Department of Transportation’s in-house sign shop manufactures more than 100,000 signs a year. We visited the shop in Queens to see how the most vandalized sign - the stop sign - is made.

I've wondered if there's a layout of the city which indicates where all of these signs are supposed to be at in case of a natural disaster and they need to be replaced. A lot of these are in place because of accidents that have occurred at that specific location.

The DOT publishes a dataset that's available online to view. To my knowledge, it only indexes parking signs, but all of them are on there.

Most cities/counties have a GIS software (some are available to the public) which has all kinds of information including this. Google your local County GIS, you may be able to see for yourself.... You would be suprised of what is tracked, some even have all public trees and the dates they were planted..... (The City/County usually has an internal version which is updated more regularly and contains more sensitive information such as where water lines are, etc.... which the public cannot accsess, you may or may not be able to see signs on your public one depending on County....)
This is really cool! As a BMW driver, I've never seen one of these "Stop" signs but they seem pretty interesting
Fun fact, the city of Paris only has one single Stop sign. The rest are right priorities and red lights

This was fascinating!! I had no idea that NYC made their own signs and how many are made If all NYC Sign Shops are equal, that's 500,000 signs per year!!! I bet there are some sign companies that wish they made and sold that many signs!!

The stop sign is my personal favourite sign.
Haven't you ever just sat there and wondered how stop signs are made... i don't think anyone needed this.
I will Support you
I use this video as a bookmark daily.
Insider's videos just bring awareness to everyone. Thats what i think.....anyway.

You don't realize how big highway signs are until you're up close to one lol. Same thing with traffic lights
When I read “NYC stop signs” I thought they would say “Stop My Guy”
New Yorkers looking at these are like WOAHHH. IVE SEEN THIS AROUND.
i never really thought to ask where road signs come from. it seems like they just arose spontaneously.
I would go there take a few signs and put it on my block
I’ll now think about how much work was put into this stuff next time I steal a speed limit sign
What ad this is without a link? I want to buy one!
I honestly never thought street signs are that big.

@AM people don't run stop signs because they're on their phones. and it's also not because the stop signs aren't glow in the dark. stop blaming phones on things when you can't handle change in this world. grow up, the world is changing, get used to it.
who can i call to have some signs replaced by queens hospital, i got two tickets , no sign in sight!
To quote the old newspaper term: are they made in a "stop press"?
HA, the stop sign in my town was put there in the 80s and has never been replaced cause of money, but still looks like new
New Macedonia Stop signs are similar to the UK:STOP is written in a different font compared to Greece,but in the Greek shade of red
What type of paint is use?
Ive watched enough austinmollno1s videos to know that u only need squejee, big knife and a small knife to make signs
Anyone else here at 3 am lmao
“How Signs Are Made” FTFY
I had a stroke reading the title😂
I heard these are being made to replace the ones the Astros stoled.
so does anyone know where i can buy one? i like the way they look but don’t wanna buy one that’s been stolen 🙂
Must be 3 am again
Imagine they were buyable, id get them all instantly
The only reason I'm here is because I've watched all the other videos here on youtube.

This is a job you get into and retire from. Seems hella easy and you'll never not have work.

Each borough has it's own sign shop? Why? Seems like it would be more efficient for the state DoT to make all the signs at one facility in a cheaper location upstate.
