    If someone died, that would be murder charges. Putting cinder blocks in the street under leaves is a boobytrap and those are usually illegal. What if it was an ambulance coming to pick up someone up next door? Or someone swerving to miss a cat?

        I probably wouldn’t. But the paramedic crawling from the burning wreckage of an ambulance screaming “MY LEGS! I CAN"T FEEL MY LEGS!” probably would.

      Get off your high horse Karen

      It would be manslaughter for the stupid driver driving into something obscured that they can’t know is safe, at speed.

        I’m not judging. I’m just telling you guys what would happen. So you probably don’t want to try this at home.

          But you’re wrong Karen. What if a kid was playing in the leaves and they drove over them? The driver is at fault.

              Tbf they’ll do neither, they just want to be angry and feel self righteous for a minute. They’ve probably forgotten about this convo already (or will soon). Sad really, I always assume things aren’t right at home for them, like playground bullies.
