    I have found it very difficult all morning to find anyone to report this incident to. as every one that i tried to contact would not talk to me as i did not have phone number.

    My friend and myself were out for a run last night and I was in wrestling terms was clothes lined by a low hanging phone line.

    This line was approximately 1.5 meters above the road level at a gate way. The black shade of the line perfectly camouflaged it into the night sky and left it vertically impossible to see.

    I hopefully got away lightly this time(bruising and sore) but should this happen to someone less agile they may not be as lucky.

    This line was unusually low and needs reflective markings or the line raised in my opinion.

    Who is responsible for this?
