That's not the only story either.


I've seen how they pain the lines. It can happen as they move along.
Often they are painted at night too where visibility would be less.

Sort of funny, but not major newsworthy.


Even at night, surely they would at least feel it when running over an
animal!


It isnt done like that. The machine has the paint sprayer on an arm out the
side of the truck, so there is no wheel going over where the paint goes.
It wouldn’t work to have the wheels going over what gets painted because
that way the trailing wheel would run over the paint and **** up the paint.
