I always thought the rope trick(you tube it if you've never seen it) was funny until some kids did it on my street and a car plowed into another car that had stopped:sad:

If you were referring to my post, it was a 4 way stop.

Quikss...I didn't say you did.

Some local teens near here a few years back took down the "road closed" signs and construction cones where the county was putting a new culvert in a road... The guy who drove into it ended up paralized if I remember correctly. :sad:

LOL, no, here is the invisible rope trick:

When I was a kid, I read a book by Henry Gregor Felson. Hot Rod was the name I think. In the book some kids did the same thing. It caused some deaths. Funny how a person never forgets stuff like that.

I remember about 10 years ago. The same thing happened and made national news when some people were killed in a crash. Some teens did it. I believe one of them came forward and they caught the rest of them and tried them in court as adults. Dont recall what thier sentence was but it wasnt light.

I remember that incident as well.

I have a better idea....Death by hanging.

If you come up on a blind intersection and there are no stop signs, shouldn't you stop anyway?!?!

There is a high fence at the corner.

Maybe the mom needs to learn to drive.

The owner of the fence should also have to take down his fence. Makes an unsafe intersection.

flame suit on.

The intersection didn't have "stop" painted on the ground?!?!?

If you're new to the area how would you know if it's a blind intersection and you have the right of way?

Out this way, most intersections do NOT have "STOP" painted on the roadway.

My apologies Jeff, I read the post wrong. I thought you were saying that I said you said it was a prank. I'm sorry, it's been a long day and I've got a terrible headache.

Do I really have to explain a blind intersection?

Then sue the city for not painting "stop".

No apologies needed, just the explanation, as you had me completely confused there

I know the long day as well. Yesterday started out at 4:30 am and I was about to wrap it up at 9:30 pm when my work van blew a front left tire at 75 mph. That sucked

No way blame can be laid on anyone but whoever took down the sign. Whoever that is needs to take responsibility for their action. I cant even imagine what their trigger might have been.

I take it you are ok? No bodily harm? That would ruin a day and NIGHT. You got me beat on the bad day then.

I felt something was about to go wrong and switched lanes, if I hadn't I would have pounded my van into the center concrete dividing wall.

No real harm at all, darn close to needing a new pair of knickers though :yes:

I put some of the blame for stuff like this on MTV and that stupid Jackass show.

 

[1badss396]

But Andy, we've been doing this to you for years :yes:

Good Score their Scottl

Cannot pursue litigation because it's not in the State Law, except in certain circumstances.
