During Victorian times, canals were dangerous due to poor safety measures, unregulated navigation, and the presence of hazardous cargo. The lack of proper Fencing and warning signs led to frequent accidents, including drownings and injuries from falls or collisions. Additionally, the canals often became polluted, posing health risks to those who lived nearby or relied on the water for drinking and bathing. The combination of industrial activity and limited oversight made these waterways perilous for both workers and local communities.

Yes. I live in an area of central CA that has irrigation canals and every summer people drown in them because of the currents and cold water.

Cars, washing machines, old tires, grocery baskets, tree branches, and other things are often found in the canals. Yet, every year dozens of people are pulled out the canals and rivers here despite the warnings.
