That means when you strike it with your car, it will break-away and not be rigid, so that is less damage to the person in the vehicle

The posts of the sign will break away easily at a designed weak point. This is to prevent serious injury or damage when struck by a vehicle at high speed.

Maybe another way of indicating 'exit' from expressway!
