July 21 (UPI) -- A traveler on a Brazilian road shared video of the "weirdest thing" that he'd "ever witnessed" -- a telephone pole sticking up from a traffic lane.

The man captured video on a road in Icozinho, Ceara, showing a telephone pole installed well to the side of the double yellow line in the center of the road, partially blocking a lane of traffic.

The filmer said there was a sign about 109 feet up the road from the pole warning of its presence.

"It was the weirdest thing that I ever witnessed," he wrote.

The city planning fail resulted in a flood of YouTube commenters lamenting the work of someone who "had one job."
