1: Man, this totally smacks of a concern trolling approach at it's core. More rules, more stringent govt regs, more more more...all for safety? So if some are stuck at 400 feet, let's point out that the AMA members who don't fly for profit but have 80 years of a proven track record should be limited to that as well, is that your argument?

2: More rules, more fines, more govt involvement. That solves the problem how? It doesn't, just means they might get more money by way of fines. Use the laws already on the books (which again, don't preclude future bad acts).

Why keep digging and digging for a solution to a problem that doesn't really warrant that type of action. Before you say "write that to the governor..." I'll just note that these types of situations are statistically minuscule, must we really have a safety rule and reg for everything?
All of what U say here Makes more seance than some around here.
Quads get a bad rap just like Guns, when it the individual that should be prosecuted.

Remember what Thomas Jefferson said about big/more government:


A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have. Thomas Jefferson

Really seems to fit our situation doesn't it?
