Re: Not as bad...
Not as stupid as you may think. The cities and towns are not turning a blind eye to this sort of stuff, they condone it.
See, if the cable company or the phone company have to dig up your lawn, and put a box here and there, no skin of the town fathers' nose. Grass grows back, and there is minimal disruption to the flow of traffic.
Mandate the use of street area, and all of a sudden, you've got traffic woes, torn up pavement, dust, etc.
The town powers that be WANT the likes of Verizon, AT&T and Comcast digging your lawn instead of ripping up blacktop.
And if you ask me, it makes perfect sense....
