Saw in the news yesterday 2 young (in their twenties i think) brothers killed in Jimalalud by a falling coconut tree as they were driving along the national highway on their motorbike.
There but for the grace of god springs to mind.
Note that this was the national highway not some dirt track in the middle of the jungle.
Almost every day i see coconuts lying in the cement road we use, these have dropped without warning from 30 or 40 feet up, even if you are in a car that's dangerous so how about if your on a motorbike.
As i have said in a previous post what's the chances of the tree owner paying for the damage or hospital charges or burial , yes that's right "zero"
All these trees within 2 metres of the cemented roads should be removed, stray dogs next.
