That's distinctly not stealing.

  That's exactly my point. Possession of the sign does not prove that it is stolen. They may be expensive but that is also not proof of wrongdoing. The police shouldn't be arresting people for possession of road signs unless there is evidence they are stolen. The price or scarcity of the sign has nothing to do with that evidence.

    I haven't offered an opinion on that, only that one shouldn't be caught stealing. Official street signs will usually have a label on the rear indicating this, they may also have information on the label about where and when it was placed. It's usually a thick sticker on the back of the sign. Some areas stencil them.
