I think that the things that the author would say about the element are that this is a lonely place that had a beach, and also the author maybe think that people drink a lot couse there are a lot of cans.

I think that this influence how people act couse it make people act like the view, if someone see those cans and all that drash in the road it would take a bad impression. But we have to respect how the road is.

The sign tell or show people that first you can see the sign that tells you there is a stop later and next this sign there is another that says how many miles you get to California, and back there is a sign indicating the name of a street.

what you see on the floor is garbage, bottles, packaging ... etc. It seems as if drink or eat and throw the garbage to the road.

I think the artist wanted to say with a representation of the california highway, which is lonely, and has many signs, besides there are many people going through there and throw the garbage on the street.
How do they influence how people act?
I think that when people go to California and take the road they will have to set more in the landscape, the signs and if they refuse to vote at least they're going to think twice before throwing
