Prior to COVID-19, two common ways for people to receive tickets for violating traffic laws or bylaw were as follows:
1. Speeding with your car
2. Letting your dog off-leash at a leash area
In the past, people have gotten away without paying the fine of a speeding ticket by disputing the ticket at court and having it dismissed simply because the officer who handed out the ticket did not show up to testify.
In the off-leash dog park area, usually the bylaw officer just give dog owners verbal warnings and that's it. Sometimes dog owners let their hand off the leash while the leash is still hooked to the dogs collar which mean the dog is not off leash.
Now with COVID-19, I have heard in news that bylaw officers are handing out tickets for people not maintaining physical distance. I think the tickets are possibly disputable. If you were handed a ticket, it's time to dispute because we are all grounded anyways.
I find it very funny to see yellow tape or caution tape all over park playgrounds. I believe the mentality behind that is because they don't want young children showing up at hospital for injury not caused by sickness at this time. With that said, if your children accidentally injure himself or herself hopefully you, the parent, already know how to treat an open wound. If you don't already have a First aid kit, now would be a good time to assemble one. I have one collecting dust since forever ago. It consist of alcohol wipes and bandages. You don't have to buy those fancy first aid kit. You can easily and cheaply assemble one yourself.
You are welcome.
