Grass cuttings in the road

Why do people mow their grass so that the discharged grass shoots out in to the roadway?

It looks horrible.

'cause, they don't know what treasures lie in black gold.......(compost).
 
Hi Honey!!

California is having a Garage sale.. and they are selling some of the CHiP bikes for $2200..

Would you mind if I picked one up while I was out there?

I was thinking of getting two, but I don't know how'd I'd ride two back home.

Did you see your "Itsbob! THis is what you want for Xmas" thread...:tap:

I shoot grass into my street while I'm cutting..




BUT, when I'm done, I do go down the street and shoot it back towards my yard off the road into the little foot wide gravel area between the road and my yard....


If I get lucky, cars drive by and blow it all off the road before I get done though :lol:

This is a problem big enough to complain about on a public forum? Sheesh, I wish that's all I had to worry about.

:howdy: Send me a plane ticket and I'll help you out.

Kawi, Harley or BMW?
 
Oh, well in that case, let's get the country to make it an ordinance. Grass clippings may not be blown into the road. A fine of $xxxx will be imposed.

Should count as littering, IMO.

Easy, ride one 100 yds and park it. Trot back and ride the other one 100yds past the first one. Repeat as necessary.

Is it bad to admit, that with my life, this truly is the one thing that I have to worry about?



It's good to be me. :yay:

If I was a cop and saw somebody doing this I would seriously pull in there and give them a ticket. I don't know for what but I bet a cop could find a good law that they are breaking. I always comment on how people are so lazy they can't blow the grass off the road.

I don't have a big issue with the clippings themselves. What I don't care for is that if they are blowing the clippings on the road then their lawnmower discharge is pointed toward the road. I hate riding by someone mowing close to the road as I often think how easy it would be for them to pick up a rock and put it through my windshield or side window.

Voice of experience speaking on this one as I was mowing my own yard one day and apparently picked up a rock and put it through my next door neighbors side window of his van, which was parked in his driveway. I didn't know I had done it but once I finished mowing and put the gear away there was my neighbor trying to figure out what had happened, standing in a pretty good debris field of glass. He could not say I did it and I wasn't even sure, but I ended up walking into the house and pulling $200.00 out of the wallet and said if more was needed speak up.

But I hate seeing a lawnmower discharge pointed toward me or my vehicle.

It we all would just switch to astroturf and plastic flowers, this country would be a better place. I think I'll email that suggestion to whitehouse.gov

I have sent out the signal via the flower net to the perennials in your yard that the time has come to eliminate all threats to us.

:evil:
