I was driving down Kingston Pike this afternoon and was behind a different kind of billboard truck. It occurred to me that Former Knoxville Mayor Victor Ashe in removing billboards from our communities landscape has now resorted to them being driven down the highways and bi-ways.
As these trucks drive 8-12 hours a day. They are emitting exhaust fumes that are polluting our environment and creating the smoke in our Smoky Mountains. They also help clog our busy highways. All the while, he is in Poland.
Thanks Mayor Ashe. What a legacy, you have left.

Brian,
ReplyDeleteI've noticed these trucks too. I suspect that they are actual, real-life delivery trucks that would be on the roads regardless of whether they are advertising or not. The advertising is simply an additional source of revenue - "inovative revenue generation" in other words. I beleve that they would be on the road regardless of whether or not there were road side billboards or not.
