Stop signs on planet Earth in 2020 are, of course, octagons.

Maybe Gilead really does use hexagons, either as a conscious choice or because the shape is traditional in their mirror universe .

Maybe the narrator doesnt know her shapes.

Maybe Atwood made a mistake and its slipped past every editor and into the latest editions.

There are places online that quote this passage, and no one seems to notice the oddity of a hexagonal stop sign.
