Heard it from someone..that if you are 2 persons in a car, you could be stopped to check if you belong to the same household? Has anyone encountered this lately?

Hear it on a FB Group early this morning but not sure if true or not. I imagine it could happen though if two similar aged women or guys in a vehicle.

There is too much traffic out there for the Circuit Breaker to be very effective (you need 90% lockdown the epidemiologists say). I expect we will see an app soon that we have to carry at all times and show why we are leaving the house. You can blame the stupid rule bending sinkies for that one.

Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!

But with the live vehicle traffic, I don't think they would do anything unless it is very obvious/suspicios.

If the cases climb expect to see much harder clamp downs. And the cases will climb unless we follow the rules.
