In general, boaters are pretty laid back and in no rush, but there are nutters.

Today we have been told that we are being issued with bodycams to deter thugs or to record incidents eeek:

Illegal (unlicensed) anglers are also a problem. Instructions are to call Environment Agency enforcers. They wear stab vests and have powers of arrest!  eeek:
