Comment | I posted this last week, but in England the Police College clarified the rules for police forces - we could do with something like this for Police Scotland. Classified under 'likely to be reasonable' is 'Driving to countryside and walking (where far more time is spent walking than driving).'
> Exercise can come in many forms, including walks. Exercise must involve some movement, but it is acceptable for a person to stop for a break in exercise. However, a very short period of ‘exercise’ to excuse a long period of inactivity may mean that the person is not engaged in ‘exercise’ but in fact something else. ***It is lawful to drive for exercise.***
