Nothing in Victoria what is not securely Bolted down or Weldet on can be considered to be reasonable safe due to poor Policing practises and Laws hindering Police by protecting "Ofenders". Mayor Marianne Alto should spent at least 2 Hours every Day on a regular Bike patrolling with Vic Police Officers allong Bike Paths pulling a Bike Trailer to transport Thieves back to Jail. Then she likely would change her Tune and do what right thinking Citizens want of her which is clean up the Streets now, without further "Studies".
