I love cladding!

So, due to no fault of their own you decided to vandalized your neighbors trash cans for fun?

When they are in the middle of the lane they are a traffic hazard - I don't blame the owners for them ending up there, S happens. But I bet the law would assign them liability if someone got into a traffic accident trying to avoid one. I could stop and get out and move them by hand, but when have you ever seen anyone do that? Everyone else just swerves around them. Better that someone "kicks" it back into their driveway than it cause a traffic accident.

Mmmmm.... I will acquiesce to the fact that I don’t live there and don’t know the laws, but I assume this is a residential neighborhood and the speed limit maybe about 25 or 30 (as in mine). Also, you didn’t mention you were performing a civic duty by ramming someone else’s property with your VX, just so their trash cans won’t be the cause of an accident.

I bet you are correct that if those cans did cause an accident the owners would be cited. I also bet that if they don’t cause an accident and you get caught damaging someone else’s property, or they happen to fly and hit someone or something you didn’t see due to your fun time, you get cited.

Off the soap box now.
