Mowing the grass but leaving leftovers everywhere on a path, branches too

Zagreb, Croatia (Hrvatska)
May 20, 2026 6:07am CST
Yes, every time the city's people do that, i am glad i'm wearing my sneakers but when it gets warmer, i have to be careful, not to jeopardize myself with their grass leftovers and some branches too. I know this is a physical job but for years, they don't care if someone will fall over the stuff they leave. One summer, i almost fell on one little branch or it got stuck into my sandal and i was not feeling it. Hm... I hear them mowing in the distance. They usually mow before the rain. Maybe someone forced them now I should make a rice for my lunch. It is 1:07 p.m. here.

I understand leaving the grass, but leaving branches is foolish.

That is indeed dangerous. Don’t they put the grass and branches in a container and throw somewhere where the other trash are?

if it's a playground area, they do it but interestingly, a path on a main road or other street, it's like they don't care or they will throw it a few days later, which is really rare. branches are really small but still, if someone doesn't look while walking, the person can realy fall and hurt themselves. ah. and then we are surprised when kids can't throw papers and other junk in a bin.

You have to take care when you cut the grass for sure.

i think they mow in theose cars so that's why they don't care much but still, they should have yes, to see if there are leftovers behind them.

It is dangerous to leave anything on a sidewalk someone can fall over grass or branches.

It's strange that they don't clean up after they mow but I'm glad you are careful when you're walking outside.

some paths are really okay but this is a path on a main road and it really frustrates me sometimes. i haven't been there again but i'll check it in a day or two. thank you. it seems i spot these things on time.

It is good to do this, but it tends to be troublesome after doing it.

You would think they would clean up after mowing. Not a safe practice.

i agree with you. it shocks me every time and makes me frustrated. i haven't visited this path but i'll have to check it again in a day or two. one time, there was a lot of grass in front of my building and it made me mad so i took my own broom from the 5th floor and started sweeping. i am glad there was not a lot of people around.
