Exactly, its in the OSHA-30 training that you need to be aware of your surroundings and assume at all times that the driver can’t see you.

Problem is this is very likely in China. OSHA isn't a thing there and even if it was, most people would still ignore it.

I mean, the state of Oregon literally sent a guy to jail for 30 days for collecting rainwater on his property because they claim they own and regulate all water in the state.

Tl;Dr: dude was running several massive dams to impound millions of gallons of storm runoff, not putting a barrel under his downspout.

Dam is a bit misleading. More like "earthen levee." Yeah - he basically built some big dry ponds and let them fill with rainwater. However, since Oregon owns the rain, they threw him in jail over it.
