Narrative:The airplane was landed on the road in a precautionary landing following a rough running engine. The pilot obtained the services of a mechanic to repair the airplane's magneto. After the repairs were completed, the pilot was taxiing the airplane for departure when both wings were damaged when they impacted road signs on each side of the roadway. Witnesses saw the airplane approaching the signs; however, had no way of warning the pilot who did not see them prior to impact.
Probable Cause: the pilot's inadequate visual lookout and not performing a maneuver to avoid obstructions. A factor was the road signs.
