I was hoping to keep this purely about peoples feelings about walking from one tier to another. Fully accepting others will take a different view. But I also accept that once you start a thread you really can't control where it goes. (although some people do seem to think you can)
There’s have been a fair number of threads where that’s been established.
I think it’s obvious (?) that it’s against the rules...and that does have a fairly logical basis. By doing that you might increase the risk for other people.
You might..for example..be a carrier even though you have no symptoms. Are you wiping down all stiles and other things you touch with an alcohol wipe?
Or by travelling somewhere for a walk (rather than doing a walk from your doorstep) you slightly increase risk of an accident needing help when services are already stretched.
Arguments can be put forward why this wouldn’t be a really bad breach of the rules. (Think we’ve all seen dafter breaches while doing supermarket shopping.)
But impossible I think to argue that it isn’t a breach of the rules...and that often the driving force for doing it would be putting personal pleasure before safety of others.
I’m avoiding it myself...but then I do have a garden and a reasonable number of walks I can do from my doorstep. In other circumstances who knows what I would do?
