In Yibin, China, a single fire hydrant has become the unlikely star of a bizarre urban saga — and a costly one for local drivers.
The hydrant, tucked along a pedestrian walkway, has been hit and damaged four times in just two weeks. Each collision sent water gushing into the street, creating both a spectacle and a safety hazard.
Local authorities say the accidents happen because motorists, ignoring traffic rules, use the walkway as a shortcut. The hydrant’s low visibility only adds to the chaos, catching drivers off guard until it’s too late.
Despite repeated warnings and signage, the cycle continues — turning the area into an accidental demolition derby and sparking calls for better barriers or relocation of the troublesome fixture.
