Mail Box Destruction

[ydelta]

A few years ago WA state did some work on the road in front of our house. When done with the road work they came back and replaced everyones mailbox post with the 4x4 posts. I asked them why they were doing that and their answer was that the state would not get the Federal funds from the government until the posts were all changed out. Had to do with accidents and lawsuits concering mailbox posts. He told me we could put our old one back in after he finished with his 4x4, but then WE would be liable in case of accidents. The state and feds would be totally cleared!!!

Just another bit of info......

I'm not sure, I think he swiped the post so it put a big scrape down the side.

We suspected someone trying to get our info, car sped off. We now have a post office box in town. Mailbox and post gone.

My granite post was knocked down by a car that was forced off the road. The next one was broken off by a friend as he backed a trailer up. Just took a small nudge. It now has a 4x4 bolted to what remains of the 2nd post. The granite breaks real easy.

I wonder how this would work.

Would it hold up to a bat or dent easy or would it scare away or draw more vandals or what

As clever as that 6-shooter mailbox is; I'd bet it attracts more vandals as they seem to enjoy bashing stuff more if its unique and/or significant chunks of money went into the item they seek to destroy.
