Description

We shoveled all afternoon to clear the sidewalk and then some jerk on an ATV -with a plow attached but raised- drove down the sidewalk and spread snow all over - undoing hours of hard work. I'm absolutely fed up with the way the city handles illegal vehicles like ATVs and dirt bikes. It's created a environment of utter lawlessness and the warrant/ property confiscation practice isn't working; for every vehicle in custody there must be 10 on the roads! It used to be they were only out on nice afternoons in the summer and fall, now, because the city is basically unable and unwilling to enforce any meaningful laws to prevent this, they're out all year long. Now, not only do we have to deal with this dangerous nuisance, but we have to shovel again. When will this city get serious about getting dirt bikes and ATVs off the streets?
