Β  Β  Β  Β  Β  Β  β€œBefore we get into the report I just want to talk a little bit about boat and bike safety,” Staff Sergeant Darren Simons said. β€œI’ve already had people question us whether they can use alcohol on a boat. The only time that it is legally permitted to drink alcohol on a boat is if the boat has a cooking area, sleeping facility, and a washroom. The boat must also be moored or docked – so it can’t be moving.”

ΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύ β€œSo, no, it’s not legal to be on a pontoon boat cruising, looking at cabins, and drinking beer or wine.”

ΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύ The other major spring concern that Simons wants to address are bicycles: β€œBikes are to behave like motor vehicles. They have to stop at stop signs, youth have to have helmets, and you can’t cycle against traffic – you’re supposed to go with traffic.”

ΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύ β€œSpring has sprung quickly and there are people all over our roads. Bikes might have the right of way, but if there’s a collision they could end up being dead wrong.”

ΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύΜύ β€œWe’d also like to remind all drivers at this time to drive defensively. Drive as though a kid might run out onto the street at anytime or a bike might appear out of nowhere.”
