Will these Zip-ties lead to an arrest?

seems like a very odd crime, and if the culprit is caught I'm sure the cops can find SOMETHING to charge him with...

I have ridden a motorcycle through 43 of the States in the USA. The thought of being suddenly swept off my bike because of something like the zip ties being strung across the street is quite scary. I even have 3 official saddle-sore 1000's to my credit. This is where you ride over 1000 miles within 24 hours, which requires a lot of night riding, or (just kidding) averaging about 200 mph during the daylight.

As for what the charges would be, you raise a valid question - I am not really sure. But at the least, they can be charged with some type of violation of air space. I don't know an easy way to explain this, but for example if a delivery truck has something sticking out of the rear bed, and the truck is parked in such a way that the protruding item is struck by another vehicle, then the delivery truck driver is at fault in the accident for not leaving a clear path for vehicles to travel down, even if the delivery truck is parked and the driver in not in the vehicle. His act of parking in such a manner is cause for damages.

In Canada I think they would be charged with "public mischief", unless someone got hurt, then it would be far worse.

Charge them with attempting manslaughter. This type of thing can kill quite easily, and should not be taken lightly. No way this can be considered "just a prank". It's far beyond throwing snowballs at passing cars.

Hey guys, the Hubdub team fixed the settlement, so that people who did not get paid for their correct prediction the first time, should have been paid the second. Let me know if there were any problems. -- Diana
