Wtf really?

Kids on waverunners are dangerous as hell. I know because I grew up riding my uncles when I went to his place on the river. I didnt even have a drivers license and I was flying down the river on a waverunner doing almost 60mph. Got checked plenty of times by the police and patrol for pfd and documents on board, along with the kill switch being in working condition. As a kid, I thought it was stupid because they just took away 5 minutes of my river time, but holy shite to say they are being dicks with no cause is absurd.

One wrong move by a kid on a waverunner can cause multiple deaths, especially if pfd's arent being worn. I run over a person in the water that fell off their tube/skis or I go flying in the trees and knock myself out and drown.

I firmly believe that the guys out their patrolling arent there to be dicks like a lot of street cops are. Plenty grew up around the waterways and know how dangerous it is
