They will have stood back and watched, until assured by the electric company that the power was off, and attendance at site of electric company personel to test it really is off. I think it would be useful for police to consider using these images in a warning campaign to deter metal thieves. They never do, in case someone is offended. You could say the same for car/motorbike crashes, etc. It would probably help significantly if teenagers understood how fragile their bodies are by actually seeing what happens to bodies in a crash before they were allowed to control a vehicle on the road, but that would be politically unacceptable, so they are let loose at a time in their lives where they are under a complete misapprehension of being indestructable. Every Xmas time around here the local police/fire brigade place terribly smashed up cars on the roundabouts along with suitable 'don't drink & drive' posters. -- Dave - The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk |
