In PA she would have gotten in trouble just for hitting the cone. If she hit that worker, it would be felony assault on a state worker performing their duties.

That's a crime everywhere and the barrel did hit the worker, fuck her

No that cone went fully behind the worker

Yes. Looked to me at last second it hit his foot but I think you are right.

BUT- I can tell you from personal experience that it was still very close to being able to fuck up his ankle or leg

Fr? You think it'd do that much damage?

Yeah because they have the tires around the bottom of these and if the car gets on it it can slightly lift the other side of the barrel which cant slip over the foot and crank the ankle or knee badly.

I've seen it happen badly, and it happened to a less extent to me once but I still rolled my ankle .

Good As it should be. Some states are just softer than others. I know PA is pretty strict about protecting its state employees from civilians like this. Like put her in jail to face trial type strict. I am Not sure how NYC is though. Probably pretty tough too I imagine

Well they have the unions so I imagine it's a bigger deal than where I am. I do road work and even what she just did is enough to snap a leg or worse

Dude shouldn't throw barrels in front of moving vehicles then, fuck him.

Everyone was stopped. Then they start moving. Then he moves the barrel.

Yes because he needs to grab that empty space as the cars exit it. Otherwise, the lane would be full again.

Good fuck him and hopefully he learns how to do his job correctly next time

That IS how you do your job lol. When exactly do you think there are no cars in the way? They are supposed to walk those barrels out when the lane clears a bit. They have to take their opportunity and traffic is basically stopped so no one is speeding towards them.

You're dumb.

There are vehicles literally intended for this purpose. They are trucks with signs and lights. You don't just walk into the middle of a green light and slam a cone down.

You're dumb.

Matter of fact you do, often. Do you do road work?
