Can anyone guide me to the municipal code for the City regarding skateboards? We had a kid skating in front of our house last night. The street has just been repaved and is very nice for that sort of thing. Anyway, the old lady across the street started screaming at this poor kid, telling him to "get that freaking thing out of the street and don't come back!" I wanted to tell the old bag to shove it but my wife stopped me before I could put her in her place.
So that got me curious as to what the exact statute is. I looked on the City of Toledo site of municipal codes and found the bicycle laws, but nothing for skateboards. I live in a quiet residential neighborhood. Not a lot of traffic on the street. I figure if a kid wants to skateboard in the street, more power to him. Let kids be kids.
Seems like every neighborhood has at least one old bag that lives to bitch.
We have one a few doors down that, if she sees little kids playing on the sidewalk in front of her house, she'll stand in the doorway just waiting to see one of them so much as touch a toe on her grass so she can scream at them.
This same bitch shortly after we moved to the neighborhood accused my daughter, who was about 7 at the time of letting her dog out of their yard.
A few hours later, her husband, who was a nice guy, came down and apologized, as they had found out the dog was getting out under their fence.
