I figured that the consequences would dictate there be maximum safety for all involved...it just seemed pointless to me that they would put out the orange warning signs, expecting people to be nice & co-operative...

A few years back, there was an incident here that spelled out all too clearly the price of letting blasters get sloppy...apparently construction equipment hit a primer cord that was being laid, & the charge went off prematurely...result was traffic stalled in one of the busiest areas of town (which I normally had to drive thru to work), while they scraped one worker's remains off the side of a semi with a spatula...
