MintTrav:
How come America is covered in fire hydrants and here isn"t? Do they not really need them, or should we have them?

Facinating subject ..

The newer "Series S" hydrants now come with a breakaway flange for minimal damage upon traffic impact. Previous hydrants had been directly connected to the water main, which led to the hydrant and pipe often being destroyed upon impact by an automobile. The flange serves as an intermediate connector that allows the hydrant to disconnect upon impact, and be easily re-connected later. The presence or absence of this protectop connector also often aids in identifying the age of the hydrant barrel. It is rare to find hydrants prior to 1960 with the flange.
