Please enlighten the Winni.com membership as to which part of this statement that you do not understand:

"every vessel shall at all times proceed at a safe speed that is reasonable and prudent under the existing conditions and with regard for the actual and potential hazards then existing so that she can take proper and effective action to avoid endangering or colliding with any person, vessel, object, or shore and be stopped within a distance appropriate to the prevailing circumstances and conditions."

I am willing to assist you with your comprehension skills.

People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance."
