Can you get electrocuted by touching the overhead service conductors?. The answer is a definite " yes ". Every year people die from touching those things, even linemen. People carry aluminum ladders & metal pipe through the yard without looking up. The height requirments for residential driveways does not cover commercial vehicels ( fire trucks, delivery trucks ) because they are not normally parked there. The main problem I see, are poeple installing windows closer than 3 ft. or building decks ( without permits ) that allow access to the service cable. Remember that more peole are killed with unloaded guns than with loaded ones. Safety proceedures are to eliminate the chance of injury or death. The sure thing is a crime. Safety starts at home.
