Uhh, I don't know how you went from lights to mailboxes. And, the association is very loose indeed. "Sheldon" wrote in message ups.com...

Well of course, rural mail delivery is always from the roadway, the Wrong. rural deliverers are not going to enter private property with their vehicles, in fact they are not going to drive off the roadway Wrong. With permissions, they will deliver parcels to the private area specified by that permission. proper... the mailbox must be reachable from the vehicle window while the vehicle is on the roadway proper. Wrong. They can and do use easement for traveling to a mailbox out of the easement. The mailbox is just out of the easement, but away from the road. Below you spoke of urban/surburban delivery, where the mail deliverer walks, not rural... and a lot of other gobbledygook about surveys, etc. Obviously you don't understand. And, whether rural or urban is of no consequence. The hollow plastic won't drive into hard soil, or rocky areas. The rebar thing is a good fix to that. The uppermost portion of the light, the light fixture itself, will still breakaway. If you want to drive rebar into the ground go right ahead, but if someone gets hurt you'll wish you didn't. And if you can drive rebar into rocky soil then there is no reason you can't pull the rebar back You are so out there. You or I or anyone else can't easily pull rebar from rocky soil. out and insert the lamp stanchion... guess you can't think that sophisticatedly... no one drives wooden fenceposts into the ground Now we're circumventing by making up implausibles. either, they make a hole with something more suitable, like a Duh. fencepost digger or augur. I guess hammering a piece of rebar to make a small hole is okay, but it's just plain stupid to leave it there... The hole or the rebar? The plastic piping fits over the rebar, making it more or less stationary. The plastic pipe won't fit in a hole made be rebar of the standard 2 diameters. no way will that piece of rebar protect the lamp from collision I've already pointed that out as not very smart. damage... if someone opens a car door into it the entire lamp will be damaged, but more importantly the rebar sticking up is likely to do If you drive an awful short car with a awwwwwfully low door. Otherwise, it will hit the light fixture itself. And, the light fixture will breakaway. major damage to the door, will cost a lot more to repair than replacing 50 of those cheapo lamps. And what if someome inadvertantly drives over that lamp and the rebar punctures a perfectly good tire... Again, said its not smart to put such near a driveway. me, I'd snatch that piece of rebar out of the ground and use it to beat your ignorant ass to a pulp. Now resorting to thuggery, blackmail, intimidation, communicating a threat. If its real soft sandy ground, maybe. Otherwise, I'd stand there waiting a long time for you to get that rebar out of the ground. La, la, la, la, hum, hum, hum. Guess I'll take nap now. Dave snickering, no, lol! rae |
