Yes, but if they said road sign, who would be blamed as responsible? 

Where your safety comes last. 

I recall being in Central once as a bit of a storm was blowing out front, at the open area facing the beach, and billboards were being whipped around at quite a speed.. dangerous. 

I hope she sues.

It was brought down by an excavator working nearby that got 'tangled' in wires, i presume power cables 

Oh how Unusual, not...... if true then the operator should be charged with negligence  libel to cause death. His employer fined, This is happening way way to much. I guess any Somchai can just operate one without any 'operators' license needed.

Maybe it was the same talent who teared down high voltage cables in Pattaya Soi 15 resulting in impressive fire and five cars burnt ????

One more lesson: see an excavator? Run!!

An acquaintance of mine was hit by a cardboard sign that fell on her in an M & S store in the UK.  She was laughing all the way to the bank.

What really hurt was it was a road sign for the hospital.
