Um, isn't sweeping the pine needles into the street simply moving the mess from one point to another? You can't really depend on street sweepers to be frequent enough to get rid of them reliably. How about sweeping them into a pile and putting them in the bin or a compost heap?

That said, stuff swept with a broom into my path wouldn't bother me. It's those guys with the whipper-snippers working close to the road that are the hazard. Stuff flying out of those really stings the legs.
