Several people from a small town in the Netherlands called the police after noticing something extremely strange at the house of nearby neighbors.
More precisely, although it was a period when it snowed a lot and the layer of snow deposited and grew, not a single flake “stuck” on the entire roof of the house, and this gave people to suspect.
Their initiation was correct, because the police officers who arrived on the spot discovered a really flourishing business inside, more precisely, a cannabis culture. The heat used to grow the plants did not allow the snow layer to settle.
Cannabis growers are being arrested by Dutch police in their droves after being caught by melting snow.
The wintry weather is proving to be a surprising foil to drug lords in the Netherlands as the lack of snow on roofs can give them away.
The owner of the building that hid the cannabis crop right in his own home now faces years in prison. The Netherlands has tolerant attitude towards personal marijuana use, but authorities only allow the cultivation of up to five cannabis plants. Scroll down for more…
Why is that?
The Answer is:
If a vehicle drives in a straight line at high speed for a long time, it will cause the driver’s vision to become fatigued, attention to be distracted, and even lead to drowsiness, which is unsafe. Therefore, driving on a road that changes from straight to curved will stimulate the driver’s concentration better.
Not to mention, builders also consider that a powerful vehicle can easily climb a steep road, but a heavily loaded truck or a passenger vehicle cannot. Moreover, a road with a straight, steep incline is extremely dangerous when descending, as it is difficult to control speed. A steep incline can also affect the driver’s visibility, making it hard to see ahead.
When designing curves, builders try to increase the curve radius and reduce centrifugal force, allowing vehicles to handle the turn more easily even at high speeds.
In summary, while winding roads may take more time to travel, they ensure greater safety. Driving on a steep, straight road is akin to playing a dangerous game that most people wouldn’t want to try.
