According to Kochie, Melbourne City Council are considering handing out $100 fines to skateboarders riding their ‘toy vehicles’ in front of public buildings and other places they don’t belong (not unlike the police car above). You can see the article here, and there is a nice little video where the bald guy interviews an old guy from the ‘Pedestrian Council’. Not sure what it takes to join the council, but I think I would qualify, and as long as you have legs you probably would too. I have always maintained that skateboarding is the sport for criminals and junkies, not like, lets say…. AFL. Sport of true gentleman. I would be happy to trade the footpath with the aging population if they can stay out of their cars and off the road. Nothing has been finalised yet, but we may as well fine 14 year kids for having fun.
