Reader agitated to have dirt, leaves, gravel blown at her automobile, questioning who’s going to clean up the mess. (Special to 91Ô­´´ Advance Times)

Dear Editor,

I am not against gas powered leaf blowers, although they are banned in places like the West End of Vancouver, and the City of Van is pushing for a city-wide ban.

What pees me off, though, is when the user blows all the crap onto the roadway, and or towards your vehicle as you are driving by.

Recently, a City of 91Ô­´´ employee sprayed my truck with grass, dirt, and gravel on 200th Street.

I’d be pissed if I was driving one of my collector cars.

Whose job is it now to clean the mess on the road… ah, another government employee with a street sweeper.

There is something called a broom and a dust pan that is still very effective nowadays.
