Nothing done

Lots of ag pilots and others are dead, as a result of running into wires. Much could be done, by the power companies,to prevent this. But very little is done. This is probably because the electricity organisations were government run.
It IS possible to make wires and poles much more visible. Sure, it costs money, but lives are worth money.

I guess someone will have to sue them to make something happen.
