It drives me nuts when people water to the point of letting the runoff run down the street...or into the street. A block from where I live, someone has automated sprinklers, and every time they water their lawn, it creates a puddle four feet wide, that stretches across the entire street.
A gravel street.
You have to drive a block around it, otherwise your tires will track all sorts of mud and little rocks into your garage, which you have to clean out later.
Nobody’s lawn needs to be watered THAT much.
I’m not disagreeing with you however I’ll bet that Caly is also referring to normal folks who in the course of watering have runoff.
