Do you mean the wrong side for the mail carrier to access the box? I so they will not get mail, so who cares?

HI
So that they can be hit by a car while going across the road to check it. It is a form of population control. Just kidding but good question. I live in an area like that I think it is for the mail car to deliver in one long sweep without having to go back down the same road again. Makes delivery faster.

It’s not a redneck thing. It’s the mail carrier having a rural route and since the distance is too far to walk he/she drives between mail boxes. Most mail carrier vehicles are right side drivers so it’s easier for them to have the mail boxes on that side of the road. it corresponds with the direction of their route.

It isn’t so much that they are rednecks, it’s more that the U.S. Postal Service dictates the location and placement of mailboxes. Specifically were you WILL place it in order for them to deliver mail. In other words, if it isn’t were they say it will be, you don’t get your mail. Go look at your mailbox, better yet, go to any store and look at the mailboxes for sale, in order for it to be a legal mailbox that the U.S. Postal Service will deliver to, it must be imprinted with “Property of the U.S. Postal Service”. This is why it is legal to put documents in a legal sized manila envelope, address it to yourself, and have it delivered to your own address, and that document is now a legal document as long as it bears a postmark and remains sealed, all legal because the Postal Service “owns” the mailbox, even though you paid for it.
