looks like the sign bracket was only tack welded and not fully welded or tested.

Re: Freeway Sign Crushes a Moving Car in Melbourne
we have monkeys running our state - ensuring things are done correctly comes a distant second to making their mates who attach the signs rich  the idiot running our state will not have learnt anything . . . . we have had highway signs for 100 years and he still cannot use that experience to attach the new ones properly  |

No brake lights - she never saw it coming. Sometimes you survive through sheer dumb luck.
