The Thread is Old but the Message is Timeless
Ignorance Knows No Season. I would remind everyone that a time/date-stamped video and/or sequential photographs (complete with hull numbers) of any "clear" "on the water safety violations" can easily constitute prima facie evidence, such that it could easily warrant the violator a visit and/or a ticket from the DNR in most any state... if you simply send it to them. I have known a few game wardens and many sheriffs, (who also have jurisdiction (over some lakes)); and there's nothing that makes them any happier than to open a case, write tickets, and even appear in court, where the evidence is crystal clear on its face to support a "careless and reckless" safety violation on the water. Don't you guys watch Lone Star Law???
