Before the LRT duke had enough room for a truck to stop and unload without blocking traffic since there were left turn lanes for Queen and Frederick that people used to get around a parked truck. There was also parking on both sides of the street so the food delivery people used to pull up and dash in to pick up the deliveries.
I agree the paranoia about someone lashing metal poles together to poke the high-voltage lines seems pretty far-fetched. Maybe just a simple rule to say umbrellas should be made out of wood or plastic instead of metal? Even then I gotta wonder... it doesn't seem like patio furniture is blowing into car traffic or people are sticking umbrellas into all the other hydro lines running around.
