Road Safety Concerns Rise After Teens Destroy Stop Sign

A stop sign is meant to save lives, but a group of teenagers in Orange Walk turned it into a prop for social media. Footage shows them ripping the sign from the ground, then posting pictures online. It comes just a day after galvanized pipes were reported stolen from the roadside along a highway. The Orange Walk Town Council says vandalism of public property has become a recurring problem and is warning that anyone caught damaging signs or other infrastructure will face legal action. This issue raises fresh concerns about vandalism and the impact it has on road safety, as it’s not just harmless fun, rather it places lives at risk. Citizens are urged to take care of public infrastructures and road signage to ensure the beautification and safety of our country.
