my friend and i used to keep some high vis vests in the back of his car so when we needed to make a skate spot skateable (removing skate stoppers, grinding off metal, rub bricking concrete, putting concrete down) no one would bother us. literally worked every time. people dont know what you’re doing and they see the vest and just figure you’re working on some shit

we’d be there straight up vandalizing infrastructure in the middle of a hundred people and even cops just walk by assuming you’re working
