Convoy Banners

Boudica

I'm here for Educational Purposes
I drive pass an overpass everyday that has banners... In the beginning of covid it was healthcare stands together signage, now it's convoy signage.

I always wondered about the liability of it. I can easily see some dumbass trying to hang a 15 ft banner off the side of a bridge not knowing what they're doing and dropping it onto a windshield...

But then I haven't seen anything in the news about it, so maybe it's not as big of an issue as it seems?

And even if they didndonthst and caused a pile up... I don't think you'd be held liable. If you walk into walmart,.buy a gun and shoot up the mall... Can people sue Walmart?

I mean, I'm sure some people would try. But people need to learn to take responsibility for their own actions and not be so sue happy anyways.

I agree with no tape for this - for one.. you never know if it'll be used everyday for months slowly coming apart, or how they'll treat it when they put it up or take it down. Tape is nice, and sure... If it falls down it's not on you, but may as well quote / price out a proper spec for the job and do it right.


I hate the Convey over here in Canada. It's not even that I disagree with what they're saying... But a 2 hour string of cars and trucks honking by my house all weekend doesn't get my sympathy. Shutting down the trade border, screwing over the Truckers who are vaccinated and preventing them from cross... That's also too far. The best part is even if Trudeau caved and didn't force vaccines to cross the border... They can't get into USA because Biden is the one who did it first! So the whole Canada convoy situation is just dumb.

I think most, if not all mandates should be ended.. but when I see our convoy, I don't think these guys are patriots ormfighting for our rights... I think these guys need to find something better to do with their time rather than **** off a huge portion of the population with constant honking and supply chain disruptions.

Again, not sure if the us convoy is different! I haven't heard about us drivers blocking the borders with 100 trucks and refusing to move, so I expect it is. Hopefully you guys are protesting right, and more effectively than our nutjobs!
It's brilliant timing... Positioned just before the mandates are being lifted any way. They can feel they "won"! I agree, that I don't agree with the mandates. But at the current stage of the pandemic... Chill out a minute more, we are almost over it. ALL Some more so than others. But the light at the end is there.

Or not. People just want to protest nowadays...

'light at the end' is normally associated with someone passing, are you saying it's going to get us all, we just need to be patient?
:rolleyes:

Aack, not at all what I meant. Lol. "The light at the end of the tunnel" what I meant. Like, when you were a kid, and you and your friends found a tunnel, that you walked into, got lost, and got really excited when you found daylight... The exit, but now you are two miles away from where you really want to be.

..This happens to everyone as a youngster, right?

We used to play in an old abandoned building at a superfund site. No light at the end, just darkness. Maybe that's what's wrong with me?

We were told to stay out of the tunnels when we first got here in '69. Locals said there might be Japanese holdouts from WWII still hanging around. We listened but didn't believe it until they caught this guy in '72

There's a guy here that stands on an overpass over the interstate damn near every morning and afternoon waving Trump and LGB flags. It's weird. Around the election, a little weird but I get it but 2 years later?
Probably the only thing that gets in the way of his daily agenda of stomping non existent socialism is when he has to take the day off to cash his disability check.
Did this guy buy his own private bridge to support capitalism, or was he using one of those socialist bridges funded by the taxpayers?
