"Driving to any place even to walk is a no no. Ask the drivers last weekend in a car park near a wood. All thirty cars in the area got a fined. Two had there card even taken if them. Having to use public transport to get home. Cars are for work if you can't work at home plus Shopping. If you breakdown. Your reported to police by AA, RAC, green flag, another's. If your in an accident courts are saying you could end up no car (crushed) and no licence. Big risk for a walk ?" What courts are stating this? A link to the info would be handy. | |||

Shopping - What you can do:
Buy several days' worth of food, including luxury items and alcohol
Buy a small amount of a staple item or necessity (for example a newspaper, pet food, a loaf of bread or pint of milk)
Collect surplus basic food items from a friend
Buy tools and supplies to repair a fence panel damaged in bad weather
If you're out on your weekly shop, you won't stopped from browsing the "non-essential" aisles.
The document adds that people have a reason to visit shops as long as they're open so it's not appropriate to stop them purchasing items considered to be "non-essentials".
You can't go out to buy DIY products to 'do up a room'
Shopping - What you can't do:
Police say it is not reasonable to pop out for DIY supplies so you can do up your kitchen, for example.
Exercise - What is allowed:
Going for a run or cycle, practising yoga, walking in the countryside or in cities or attending an allotment
Driving to countryside and walking (where far more time is spent walking than driving)
Stopping to rest or to eat lunch while on a long walk
In some circumstances, exercising more than once per day
You can stop to rest - if you are exercising(Image: PA)
Exercise - What isn't allowed:
Driving for a prolonged period with only brief exercise
A short walk to a park bench, when the person remains seated for a much longer period
Sunbathing in parks is not permitted, but taking a rest during a workout outdoors is permitted.
Police say exercise "must involve some movement".
Sunbathing is not allowed(Image: PA)
Work - What you can do:
Key workers or other essential workers can travel to work where it is not reasonably possible to work from home
Some non-key workers or non-essential key-workers can travel to work where it is not reasonably possible to work from home
Deliver food packages to vulnerable people.
Work - What you cannot do:
People who can work from home choosing to work in a local park
Knock on doors offering to do cash in-hand work
The government has clarified who counts as a key worker and is allowed to travel to work or bring their children to school during the day.
However, some non-key workers have been allowed to travel if they are unable to work from home or if their employer requires them to come in.
The guidelines also states that you cannot work from local gardens or parks while working from home.
Other reasons to leave home - What you can do:
Go to the vet for essential treatment
Move to a friend's address for several days to allow a "cooling-off" following arguments at home
Provide support to vulnerable people.
What you cannot do:
Visit a vet's surgery in person to renew a prescription (where this could be done over the phone)
Visiting a friend in their address or meeting in public to socialise.

"Good info
Parts that can be open to interpretation-
Exercise - What is allowed:
Driving to countryside and walking (where far more time is spent walking than driving).
This could be the OP's intention.
Exercise - What isn't allowed:
Driving for a prolonged period with only brief exercise.
What is defined as a long period and brief?
From the info that is given the OP can go to the beach.
My favourite bit-
Police say exercise "must involve some movement".

"The uk government has just opened stanstead airport so fruit pickers can be flown in ,given the incubation period for covad is roughly 2 weeks before symptoms show ,I would say a drive to the beach is bloody right, lockdown my arse Yes that was shocking to hear." Not really, fruit pickers have always come from Europe. It’s too filthy for us Brits to pick fruit. If it isn’t picked, it’s going to go to waste and we won’t have any fruit especially important after brexit. I don’t understand why we don’t have all the able bodies collecting govt payouts doing it. It’s actually as much pay as I make per hour as a nurse! | |||

" measures that stop the spread should be global its perhaps why the uk figures are so bad in comparison to other countries that adhere to social distancing measures instead of folk deciding to swan off down the beach as they are bored | |||

Absurd statement "Quite simply. By saying that she can use this reason to go for a sleep over is making light of the real reason for this guideline. She also appears to be single, so not likely not (though not impossible) to suffer from domestic abuse at home and so in all probability would not have reason to use this guideline. Therefore she is making a flippant comment about that guideline and the reason behind it "making no sense". | |||

"All I read is lots of assumptions on your part to a lighthearted take on the guidelines in written form from a poster who you know nothing of her personal circumstances. The guidelines are open to interpretation. You take your assumptions and let others take theirs. At no point did she conflict domestic abuse with the interpretation. That was you. | |||

That was you. "Yes, you're right. I did state and explain my assumptions in my last post, though. Ask reasonable i think. The one assumption I made, and I stand by, that i didn't explain, is that both you are the person who made the original comment are intelligent and articulate individuals. In my opinion you are both able to make the connection. I may be over sensitive about this topic, but I still think it was a poorly thought out and made comment. The lock down is making me a bit grumpy also. 
This is my last post on the subject as we're not getting anywhere. I will let you have the last word and I will read it, but not comment as I feel we're antagonising each other for little reason or gain. | |||

If you are driving to a local place then again driving there would be classed as unnecessary travel as you could wlk.

My only issue with you was the fact you bragged in another thread saying YOU would continue as normal and walk your dog multiple times a day. Appreciate your family is now walking the dog as part of their own daily excerise . Everyone a winner including your dog. I appreciate your compliance.
Only need 1 other rule breaker who brags on here to accept she is also breaking the rules and perhaps change her selfish ways. | |||

"No smugness or bragging. Just saying it like it is. Iv told you I dont know how many times I asked the police and they said I'm fine. Il take their word over a guy on a sex site everytime.
Now your being silly, I'm not asking you to take my word for anything. I'm saying you are selfishly ignoring the advice from the Scottish, cmo, UK cmo, advice from the Scottish government, that advice being : if you need to exercise or walk dogs , the advice is stay local and avoid unnecessary travel, again it's not rocket science, driving to anywhere can't be local otherwise driving would not be necessary. If you are driving to a local place then again driving there would be classed as unnecessary travel as you could wlk. Regardless of what your police offer said you are still selfishly breaking the rules either way for your reason for driving . Capesh.
You are being silly. I am far from foolish and done a mental risk assessment for my dog walks. The drive takes probably under 6mins and the walk would take about 30mins with 2 dogs who sniff at every lamp post and wall they see. I live beside 2 shops and a school which is still open. By walking i would pass many people. Driving is by far the safest option in my eyes so i will continue to do it.same I'd come across more people and take longer to walk there where I take mine.
Silly man
But be rest assure the other 2 times the dogs are walked my hubby n kids walk them.so you can sleep well tonight in that knowledge zest.
That's fantastic , if only everyone would comply with the lockdown rules maybe we would all get through this quicker. My only issue with you was the fact you bragged in another thread saying YOU would continue as normal and walk your dog multiple times a day. Appreciate your family is now walking the dog as part of their own daily excerise . Everyone a winner including your dog. I appreciate your compliance.
Only need 1 other rule breaker who brags on here to accept she is also breaking the rules and perhaps change her selfish ways. no one is bragging.your the stooping to name calling

"I’m looking for opinions. With the police in England being advised that driving to a deserted place to take valid exercise is allowed, I have this question... I have a beach which is deserted even on busy warm days. It is 20 mins by car from where I stay. The surrounding streets beside me are filled with joggers/ cyclists/ walkers and although social distancing is possible, it’s a total PIA as it’s busy. The beach is 4 miles long, there might be 3/4 other people on it with there doggies. Would the drive to the beach be viewed as unacceptable? At what point would it be acceptable? Is the beach a safer option?" I wouldn't chance a 20 min drive...my car cut out at the lights the other day on the way back from the local supermarket and panic set in. All I could think of was what it would be like if I'd been stranded further away or in a bump. That's just me though....I'll admit I'm slightly paranoid at the moment. | |||

"I would not drive 20mins to anywhere except work." You admitted driving 3 times a day to walk your dogs, there and back every day for the last 4 weeks how much time would that driving add up to ? . All of which any journey no matter how short could have ended like doggy's experience. But hey you could just make up more dog jokes while waiting for the AA or RAC or some poor relative or friend to bail you out from your unnecessary journey you feel you must take every day. | |||

"You could breakdown, crash whatever if you drive but you could also trip over, get knocked down or get mugged if you walk locally. Today I seen 6 police officers standing together talking on the Paisley road west outside a roll shop near their station. There was also 4 or 5 people waiting to get in as well. There was no social distancing and the police weren’t to bothered about anything other than their rolls. I don’t know if anyone who has been stopped, questioned or anything like that. If you know for sure the beach will be quiet I would go but there’s a lot of people with the same idea to go to local quiet places making them very busy " Your 100% right loads of people, police included breaking the rules.

The advice and guidelines are clear. Essential travel only. Driving 20 miles for a walk in the woods isn't essential. "But the guidelines state- 1.Exercise - What is allowed: Driving to countryside and walking (where far more time is spent walking than driving). 2.Exercise - What isn't allowed: Driving for a prolonged period with only brief exercise. So if you live in the city, driving to the countryside and spending more time walking or exercising is OK as that's what the guidelines state in rule 1. The second rule could cancel its self out as conflicts with the first rule. Driving for prolonged periods. Even if the journey takes more than 20mins technically it could be justified as you would be complying with rule 1. Totally open to individual interpretation. | |||

"You have to ask yourself what is the object of the guidelines - is it just to simply stop unnecessary journeys, or is it to prevent unnecessary journeys that lead people coming into contact with one another? I'd say the latter, therefore if where you normally exercise/walk your dog means you are more likely to come into contact with other persons, then going somewhere quieter actually becomes a necessary journey. Surely common sense applies here - why stick strictly to the word of the guidelines if it means coming into contact with dozens of folk, when you can avoid it by bending the guidelines slightly to have a safer outcome. I get it, but its a bit bloody pedantic. It'd be very different if you are heading off tens of miles to go somewhere that is a beehive of activity, but if its just down the road to an isolated spot more power to you." Just melted my tiny brain jumping between the GOV and SGOV websites and the both have similar guidelines, but you can easily pick holes in both. Like someone has said above certain police forces are dealing with it differently. Where i am in Lincolnshire at the moment I've never seen the police since the lock down was put in place. | |||

Yes they are, having a walk in the woods is fine if you're staying away from other people, as repeatedly stated by the health secretary.
And I'm not travelling 20 miles "Apologies,I meant 20 mins, not miles. Still the same though, non essential travel which is advised against. Lots bending the guidelines to suit themselves which is selfish and irresponsible. | |||

"Essential travel is largely defined as shopping for necessities, picking up medical suppliers, caring for a vulnerable person and getting to and from work if you cannot do so from home. "Anything else is not really acceptable so if you have an accident and cannot prove that your journey was essential your insurance may be void."" I totally agree with everything you said.

"https://www.directline.com/covid As of 17th April 2020. The Foreign and Commonwealth office (FCO) has now extended the advice against all but essential travel for the foreseeable future. A claim under your travel insurance can only be considered if you are due to travel in the next 28 days.

The Foreign and Commonwealth office (FCO) has now extended the advice against all but essential travel for the foreseeable future. A claim under your travel insurance can only be considered if you are due to travel in the next 28 days. We can’t provide any advice on trips that are due to start more than 28 days in the future - this is because the FCO advice can change at any time.

Its frustrating when some think Stay home and Stay safe doesn't mean just that, if we are asked to do this to prevent further deaths then isn't this what everyone should be doing not just some who think rules don't apply to them. "My post wasnt aimed at you in particular. There were numerous posts where people have put their own twist on the rules to suit themselves on both sides of the debate. Stop being so defensive. I am not stupid enough to no realise that every industry has had to make adjustments to their service or provision. I think you will find it's an opinion that the insurances wont pay out. This has not been advised or confirmed across the board so it is unhelpful to sensationalise this information. Exactly the same as taking the rules to a literal black and white. Everyone has their own way of coping. We shouldn't judge people who are using common sense ffs. I'm absolutely correct in saying I and everyone else are still allowed to think for ourselves and protect ourselves from unnecessary risk. And just to be clear I am not bending any rules am staying home and keeping safe. We were in lockdown before the government advice so have basically been in for 5 weeks. Maybe this has made me a little cranky with all the pish and misinformation spouted all over social media but heyho we all have opinions, but that is exactly what they are, opinions. Ramming them down folks throats is more likely to polarise those opinions than gain consensus, again an opinion. I'm saying no more on this as I know you like to get the last word so you are welcome to it. Stay safe | |||

"The uk government has just opened stanstead airport so fruit pickers can be flown in ,given the incubation period for covad is roughly 2 weeks before symptoms show ,I would say a drive to the beach is bloody right, lockdown my arse Yes that was shocking to hear. Not really, fruit pickers have always come from Europe. It’s too filthy for us Brits to pick fruit. If it isn’t picked, it’s going to go to waste and we won’t have any fruit especially important after brexit. I don’t understand why we don’t have all the able bodies collecting govt payouts doing it. It’s actually as much pay as I make per hour as a nurse! " I have done fruit picking when I was younger ect to be honest it's hard work but hayho. No need to go to the gym you are as fit as a fiddle and I agree no unemployment after brexit fill the jobs good or bad | |||

"I’m looking for opinions. With the police in England being advised that driving to a deserted place to take valid exercise is allowed, I have this question... I have a beach which is deserted even on busy warm days. It is 20 mins by car from where I stay. The surrounding streets beside me are filled with joggers/ cyclists/ walkers and although social distancing is possible, it’s a total PIA as it’s busy. The beach is 4 miles long, there might be 3/4 other people on it with there doggies. Would the drive to the beach be viewed as unacceptable? At what point would it be acceptable? Is the beach a safer option?" _vcarol…. yes this is acceptable Matt Hancock said on Friday 17/04/2020 that going out rules have changed He stated on news and tv that you can drive to the countryside for a walk as long as the walk takes longer than the drive to get there so if your drive is 40 minutes, as long as you walk an hour, its acceptable you will find this report online as well so get your ass down to your deserted beach and enjoy your walk | |||

Is the beach a safer option? _vcarol…. yes this is acceptable Matt Hancock said on Friday 17/04/2020 that going out rules have changed He stated on news and tv that you can drive to the countryside for a walk as long as the walk takes longer than the drive to get there so if your drive is 40 minutes, as long as you walk an hour, its acceptable you will find this report online as well so get your ass down to your deserted beach and enjoy your walk" So does someone follow each person to check the walk is longer than the drive? | |||

"...slightly off topic...but can someone come you round and take my neighbour's dog for a walk before I lose my slipper up her hoop. She's had the poor thing out the back since 8am and it's been barking non fucking stop." That depends how far away from us you are and if we will walk it for longer than it takes to drive to yours | |||

"I’m looking for opinions. With the police in England being advised that driving to a deserted place to take valid exercise is allowed, I have this question... I have a beach which is deserted even on busy warm days. It is 20 mins by car from where I stay.

"The uk government has just opened stanstead airport so fruit pickers can be flown in ,given the incubation period for covad is roughly 2 weeks before symptoms show ,I would say a drive to the beach is bloody right, lockdown my arse Yes that was shocking to hear. Not really, fruit pickers have always come from Europe. It’s too filthy for us Brits to pick fruit. If it isn’t picked, it’s going to go to waste and we won’t have any fruit especially important after brexit. I don’t understand why we don’t have all the able bodies collecting govt payouts doing it. It’s actually as much pay as I make per hour as a nurse! At this time i am sure many would have been grareful to do this job to earn extra money." The jobs were posted no one applied the ones who did apply 90%disnt go as far as interview  | |||

"There is a country park and woods a 5 min drive from us, or the river is the same distance. We either go there or to woods a little further away, about 20 mins. We live in the middle of a housing estate, there are more people walking the streets than at these places, with the exception of the river which can have pockets of people at points, so we try to minimise that as much as possible. The health secretary has been on tv saying this is ok as long as common sense is used, so until that direction is rescinded we will do this for our daily exercise. The police and the government need to clarify their message and work as one. The majority of us are social distancing as much as possible, unlike the police and crowds on london bridge last night doing their clap
The advice and guidelines are clear. Essential travel only. Driving 20 miles for a walk in the woods isn't essential.
Yes they are, having a walk in the woods is fine if you're staying away from other people, as repeatedly stated by the health secretary.
And I'm not travelling 20 miles
Apologies,I meant 20 mins, not miles. Still the same though, non essential travel which is advised against. Lots bending the guidelines to suit themselves which is selfish and irresponsible."https://www.scotsman.com/health/coronavirus/can-i-drive-somewhere-exercise-or-walk-my-dog-uk-lockdown-rules-explained-2519615 | |||

"Yes I actually know the person who typed it . Ive obviously copy and pasted it from them since I said it was a friend who typed it. Trust me I know the original poster very well .  it's more that few weeks it's been going about.
If your friend typed this more than a few weeks ago can you ask them to consult the crystal ball one more time and tell us all when lockdown will end please. The point 11 about tigers catching covid only broke on the 6th of April only 2 weeks ago, could it be she told you a wee porky ? or do they really have a crystal ball ?.
"Who said it was a she??? The cat was before april and the tiger was on media before it went to papers 6th April actually, you clearly just go off what's on the news and in papers, top feeds . If you actually check, the questions where being asked about tigers getting infected on the 30th march, 2nd and 5th of April few weeks ago, The bronx zoo tiger was infected before 6th April, they only publisized between the 2nd and 6th april. | |||

"My apologies for saying "she" just most clairvoyants are female but point taken. 
As for your second part of your post, none of the dates you quoted are over a few weeks so I'm still puzzled.
Or does your friend have a direct contact with the bronx zoo during testing of tigers and even knowledge of a positive test in tigers prior to the dates it was made public. If she knew tigers had tested positive before it was revealed on the media then I'm amazed she typed her list especially point 11 as her way of breaking this very important worldwide news.
I'm afraid it doesn't really ring true. | |||

"Thats fine if it doesn't ring true to you but if it was breaking news on the 6th April, I can assure you the tiger didn't get tested on the 6th april And how long does it take for tests to come back?? We all know that things get leaked and some things get removed. UK always get the news last. It was in new York, how long before we find out in UK? | |||

"The tiger is actually my pal, Tony, and he says he actually caught covid 19 in November last year. Had all the symptoms after taking his dog out for a 2 hour walk a few days previously. " Can always rely on you to lighten things up haha. but Tony is a she called nadia, Tony might be one of the lions right enough | |||

Police near me are moving folk on, leafleting parked cars and fining anyone who doesn't comply. This is just one of many things that people are doing that don't comply with the lockdown and every time someone doesn't comply the length of lockdown and the amount of time before each stage of relaxation gets longer.

FFS just stay at home!" You’re right, the college of policing guidance is for England only, however barring some small details, the statutory instruments (the law which sets out what is and isn’t a reason to leave your home) are pretty much identical. The law in Scotland is silent on how long you can leave your house to exercise, and how you get there. The college of policing guidance would seem to be quite sensible interpretation. Ultimately it would need to be tested in court, but those cases will be months away, so in the meantime we have common sense and guidance. If police are ticketing punters on matters on which the law is silent, then those cops are over-reaching. The Chief Constable has been quite clear (on record) on the policing style he expects from his troops. I’ve seen a few folk commenting about how they’ve phoned 101 to ask for advice on this law. There are 5 million folk here - if everyone phoned to ask, we’d quickly have jammed up emergency services phone lines. There is plenty advice and guidance on government websites without needing to “just check if I’m ok to...”. | |||

"what is being said now is that any travel for exercise should be appropriate so if you are an athlete that normally would train for hours at a time about an hour is not going to do you any good so you can go longer. traveling for 20 mins - ie 20 miles or so and doing a dog walk of 30 mins is not on and you could find that if you were in an accident or stoped by the police that you will not be covered by any insurance due to it being non essential and the insurance company will disown you . in wales cyclists have been told to stay local so that if they have a failure they can walk home .so they cant go for a 100km ride and think it is fine . as you are only going for a walk live with the inconvenience of others doing the same as you and stop being selfish the beach is not local so hard luck " It’s interesting you mention Wales. They’re the only nation to introduce a limit on the number of times you can leave for exercise- only one. The others are silent on that point (so Scottish dogs can be walked three times a day...!) http://www.legislation.gov.uk/wsi/2020/353/regulation/8/made | |||

"Will say this again for the folk scrambling for an argument..I also spoke to the police ..I didnt call them I saw them out so stopped and asked I drive my 2 dogs 5 or 10 mins from my house to walk them in a wooded area no one around so no contact with anyone walking them there I would come into co tact with folk so easier to take the car..they said that was perfectly reasonable and that they are urging folk to "use common sense" which is not driving 20 miles away for a 10 min walk. Christ everyone is an expert on a sex site if in doubt ask the proper authorities." yip agree with you | |||
