    Whenever "they privatize" ANYTHING, (especially public works projects) the quality, and user-friendliness go to absolute sh**, and the charges you pay go through the roof as they are now PROFIT driven. You are exactly correct about those toll-road interstates that are "run" by these private entities. Basically, it is a profit-driven freeway and does NOT have to be to "interstate" standards even though it is called, designated, and signed an INTERSTATE! Totally ridiculous. I agree!

    • @bradh74
      @bradh74 Год назад +3

      That's not always true. The Ohio turnpike goes overboard with build quality and pays prevailing wage for all of the construction workers working on the Turnpike all day long. (if you deliver to it you don't get it if you leave) They have crews waiting "incase" it snows to plow/salt etc. Sometimes you're right but not always the case.

    • @williamwallace8164
      @williamwallace8164 Год назад +3

      That is because the Ohio Turnpike is not wholly owned by a private subsidiary. The Ohio Turnpike is operated under a commission of members appointed by the Governor of Ohio, hence making it primarily publicly owned.@@bradh74 Unlike the Indiana toll road is so-called "leased" by some corporation out of Australia. This is the primary reason why the Indiana toll road is so terrible, in almost every way.

There may be some influence there but the people I know that work there say the State has nothing to do with them even though the trucks and Troopers vehicles are the same. They can only work on the pike, I had an interview there years ago, nobody wants to say who owns it, rumors are a private owner and some say West Virginia owns it so, all I can say is Ohio don't own it.

    12:59 In South Australia, when there is a Stop Sign the vehicle is required to stop before it reaches the White Line.
    If there isn’t a White Line, the vehicle is required to stop before the Stop Sign.

    all the wooden poles are below 10Kv (10,000v). All those small round boxes on the poles are transformers and step the voltage down from lets say 7500v to 240/120v for household use. All the big tall metal poles in dense urban areas are 200Kv (200,000v) or more. The wood ones are meant for residential, small businesses, schools, and rural areas. The big poles are transmission lines meant for long distances. They up the voltage to reduce voltage loss over distance. Commercial airports usually have a direct link to the high voltage lines because they use so much power. Great video Steve. Sorry for all the bad family blood. Im just glad mine doesn't have any. Im very lucky and thankful for that.

    At the time your route was planned there could have been Jersey barriers on the bridge causing a width restriction. Or the barriers were planned and the date wasn't set in stone, so to make sure you could fit you were routed off the bridge. It definitely took less time taking the detour than backing up because you couldn't fit on the bridge.

    Kansas did the same to me when I was hauling a 14' wide conveyor section for the new meat plant in North Platte, Nebraska. Routed me off I35 onto state routes for about 40 or 50 miles. Made it no problem, but it would have been safer on the interstate I think. It was on a flatbed so the wide section (top) was about 8' off the ground with the base sitting on the trailer inbetween the nailers.
