If you live in the middle of nowhere you actually could get away from it. I fly out of a small airport only an hour from Boston and 15 minutes from Worcester. Not all of the planes/gliders even have radios. Also without a ground frequency people are walking and driving onto the taxiways as these please. If you're not flying instrument its up to the pilot to be watching for who knows what from all directions!! Makes it interesting I suppose...

What I'm curious is how they'll deal with the possibility of a damage to the craft. If someone opens up a car door into your wing how do you determine if there's any significant damage to the loading surfaces (especially if there's composites involved)...how about a tap from the car behind at the stop sign.
