Re: [Texascavers] New laws in Texas
Thanks, David. Good info. I have a switchblade over a foot long. I may bring it to TCR.

Hit and Run accidents can have double the penalty. Knives like switchblades are legal, so you got to watch out for robbers pulling those on you. School zones and driving while gadgeting is now illegal everywhere. Feel free to correct me, or add to it.

RE: [Texascavers] New Laws and old fun--My last word on...
...stupid things we did while riding in or on a car (even though it may or may not have beein our fault): Girl, 13, found riding in cardboard box atop van Oct. 5, 2009 05:07 PM Associated Press ALBERTVILLE, Ala. - An Alabama woman has been arrested and accused of endangering the welfare of a child after police say she let her daughter ride in a cardboard box on top of their van. Albertville Police spokesman Sgt. Jamie Smith said the 37-year-old woman was arrested Sunday after police received a call about a minivan on a state highway with a child riding on top. Smith said the woman told police the box was too big to go inside the van, and that her daughter was inside the box to hold it down. Smith said the mother told officers it was safe because she had the box secured to the van with a clothes hanger. The 13-year-old daughter wasn't harmed and was turned over to a relative. A jail worker said the mother was out on bond Monday.

I think that I had the same fun in the 40's and 50's that would be illegal now and probably was then.

Re: [Texascavers] new laws
Sorry, gang, in the midwest in the 1950s, riding in a pickup truck
bed was already considered either child abuse or organ donation -- it
was illegal.
Think of it as environmental classism . . .

Re: [Texascavers] new laws
My daddy raised chickens and pheasants so we had a lot of rotten eggs whenever a new batch hatched (not all of them hatched). We'd get a bucket or two full of rotten eggs, climb in the back of the pickup (not sitting down but leaning on the top of the cab), and drive out of town on FM 881 tossing eggs at the road signs out over the cab like a tank firing it's cannon. Splash and splatter. The local cops saw us from time to time and never said a word. Riding back there was a normal as 10 year olds driving the tractor to town because they didn't need the license they didn't have to drive a car on the street but there were no restrictions on tractors. --Ediger On Fri, Oct 2, 2009 at 1:17 PM, Mixon Bill bmixon...@austin.rr.com wrote: When I think of the fun I had when I was a kid doing things that are now illegal -- Mixon The world did not end yesterday, as I had predicted.

Re: [Texascavers] new laws
Nowadays, the kids drive ATVs at a tender age, as evidenced by this improbable story in yesterday's Houston Chronicle: 5-year-old boy's kill: gator 20 times his size http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/moms/6645997.html ...Simon learned to drive all-terrain vehicles and shoot firearms when he was only 4. So he was primed and ready to go on an alligator hunt this past weekend with his father, Scott Hughes, a sixth-generation rancher, and hunting guide Chuck CottonSimon had a new junior-sized .410-gauge shotgun. ..“That's the way it is in rural areas,” Scott Hughes said. “We don't think of guns as playthings or something used in videogames.” Must have been different for Southern city boys back when I was a kid: we generally weren't allowed to own guns or have have unrestricted access to them until we were 13 or 14 back in the early Sixties. But I knew about the rural tractor-driving, and boy was I jealous!
