You bring up an interesting question there. I've been tempted to
go
"off road" a few times under some of the power lines around here
(LCEC
I assume). Is it illegal and/or enforced?

----------------------------------

I don't know about Florida. In MA, is used to be fun riding under
the powerlines on dirt bikes and sometimes 4 wheel drives and
authorities looked the other way. That all ended many years ago.
Now it's trespassing and enforced if they can catch you. Heck, the
conservationist routinely shut down the beach in our town due to
"piping plovers" .... some kind of protected bird species.

I know that in PA, there was a gas pipeline that they kept the right of
way cleared on, you could access it on farmer's land and go where ever
it went to next, with snowmobiles or dirt bikes. Trouble is, some of it
went up over VERY steep hills, which was fun to see who could and could
not make it up and over!
