Maybe I've spent too much time living in a town where crime is non-existent, but plenty of people go to the parks and down by the water here late at night and I've never heard of any trouble going on. For the record, I've never heard of anyone getting a ticket around here for something like that either.

It was stupid, it was after dark in a town where she is not familiar. It was stupid because that's something she has NEVER done in her own town. It was a way for the town to make money, but at the same time, rules are rules and young people need to learn and adhere to them to avoid issues down the road.

Ya, she could. And if she WAS, then deal with it. Don't issue tickets for pre-crimes.
