Bad324 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Wow!! Not on a bike but while in the car, i had a my car VS riding mower. This was on a 4 lane road. I am going north and a guy on the southbound side was cutting the grass on the tree lawn also heading north. the mower kicked up a rock and hit my car. Nothing bad, just a slight divit in the door panel. When I cut the grass on my tree lawn, I tend to make the first cut on the treelawn in the direction facing traffic. If i see a vehicle coming, I will stop the blades, just so nothing kicks up into on coming traffic.unfortunately you would be the 1%and by that I mean the 1% of people who use their brain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolWhip Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Grass clippings covering the road can be dangerous for cars too. People just need to use common sense and be a little more considerate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdecal Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 When I was younger we had an old Ford tractor that my dad got hit by a car on. The car was smashed and the tractor didn't even have a scratch on the paint. He did hurt his back though. My dad got cited though for not having a slow moving vehicle sign on it. The guy admitted he didn't see him on the tractor because he was dialing a number on his cell phone. This is the type of tractor it wasAs for the grass clippings I'll have to agree with that. They are pretty slick when I ride my bike through my neighborhood. On a nice day after a lot of rain it's hard to even avoid it because everyone is mowing their grass.
