They always say to use a little extra cable because you’re going to kick yourself in the butt if you’re short by an inch. But this is a bit ridiculous in terms of how much slack they have.

I believe that’s the cable for the traffic camera on this intersection. After seeing it a few days in a row during part of my commute, I just had to take a photo to share just how much slack they have here.
