I LOVE....

Skateboarding tickets. I know cops are getting chubbies from handing them out left and right for "skateboarding on sidewalks" and the endless helmet tickets this city has been struck with but c'mon now, there's a point where it becomes ridiculous.

The night started out well, Zak got some pizza and we shredded the bricks.

Filmed a little with the new mk1 (got my Ty Evans on, fuck yeah).

Zak got a cool trick first try but then tragedy struck and tickets were handed out.

Check the description on these things, as part of the motor vehicle act I guess (click for bigger):

Welcome to Halifax!

  1. I hope to god zak fights this. Section 172 literally says the opposite of "you can't skate on the sidewalk":

    172 (1) Subject to subsection (2), it shall be an offence for a person upon roller skates or a skate board to go on a roadway except while crossing on a crosswalk or unless on a roadway authorized by the Minister.

    (2) The council of a city or an incorporated town may exempt from subsection (1) any roadway within that city or town that is not a highway to which the Public Highways Act applies. R.S., c. 293, s. 172.
