I hate it when road signs are obstructed. I just saw two on my trip. I've been known, when I have time and it is safe, to stop and clear the obstruction. These are accidents waiting to happen.
I truly feel for your son, who appears to have been an innocent victim. And for the driver who hit him, who also appears to have been an innocent victim.
