This guy’s pretty brave, I wouldn’t work with my back to traffic today considering how preoccupied drivers are now. The norm now is a block of traffic control barriers and a 4x8 sign with a blinking arrow.
And then in the seventies it was our stereos in our cars we had had to worry about some clown stealing.
I didn’t have very good stereos back then but I did have a couple of tachs stolen. Both were Sun Supers. Yeah, that would would tick me off just a bit.
