    A real estate dude plonked one on a narrow strip of lawn I was actively mowing, even though other areas were open. Oops looks like my mower knocked it over good luck with sales dude

    I move obstructions like this and rental scooters into the street.

    My favourite is rental e-scooters/bikes being left blocking my driveway, sidewalk, or just dumped on the lawn. (I’m in Ontario)

    Hey, they walked it half way to the dumpster… you can chip in and bring it the rest of the way!

    These work much better if you place them in the center of the intersection.

    One must consider carrying around a back-mounted woodchipper at all times for this exact reason, and others.

      I mean, I’m glad you are thinking of being prepared, but ‘accidentally’ kicking over the sign would have 80% of the desired effect and 50lbs less weight on your back.

      Sidewalk crossings dip down and are textured to help disabled people be able to use them.

      Placing a sign like this right there is genuinely dangerous for certain disabled people

      Unless you can’t, or even just don’t, see it, then you could trip and fall into the street where you might get hit by a car.
