I went out for a bite to eat after a big storm that hit us lastnight. I was driving down a 2 lane highway and half of the road was blocked off. As I drove by I realized that a tree had fallen on some power lines. I went my way and grabbed something to eat. On the way back I received a phone call so i pulled into a parking lot to talk. I was actually directly across the highway from the downed tree so i sat there and watched for a while. 1 police officer, and 2 cable guys. All of them had huge hand held spot light looking flashlights. Now here comes the sad part, it took all 3 of them standing right next to eachother to shine their lights 30 feet above them to look at one specific part fo the power lines. And i dont mean once, I mean if the officer or cable guy walked back to their cars they could waited until the 3rd person came back to flash their light so they could see again. I dont understand, I'm not a huge flashlight fanatic myself (yet) but when you work in a field where you know light is going to be required to see AND FOR SAFETY why not buy yourself a real light? I mean, imagine if the rest of the tree started to come down when there was only 2 guys standing around it. It would of fell right ontop of them because they werent looking at the spot when the 3rd person walked away. Just some food for thought! :thinking:
