“Someone strung a wire across a driveway next to a parking lot,”

In other words, somebody got tired of motorcycles cutting across their property.

No reason that he couldn't put a few visibility flags on it, however. It would still accomplish the same thing. With a strung cable across the road, a vehicle can't go through it, around it, over it, or under it. To get through, someone has to get off their motorcycle or out of their car and physically unattach the cable, if possible, which defeats the whole idea of cutting across the lot to save some time.

Yeah, very good chance of that. There's a parking lot near me that was a great way to avoid a difficult intersection. The first time I tried it I thought it was great. The next time, I found they had put in a series of speed bumps. Never again.

That is what I thought. Most likely the lot is situated in a place that makes this common. Enter lawyers at left.

Some environmentalist strung a wire across a hiking trail some years back because he didn’t like atvs using it, even though it was legal for atvs. Some guy got severely injured. I think the environmentalist is still in prison.

I other words, someone is about to loose that property along with the rest of their stuff because being negligent and malicious can be costly.
