Why the contribution is important
At the moment if I want to exercise I'm constraint to go running in my local area.
I live in Leith and I would feel safer if I could drive a short distance to a local beach and go out windsurfing where there is plenty of space then go for a run or walk in water of Leith which is always packed with people running, cycling or walking the dogs and is hard to keep the distance.

I believe that people are more educated about social distancing now than before lock down and that fact will have an impact on virus transmission provided the message is constantly reinforced. Society has not been tested on the impact that social distancing will have when virus levels are down and things return to new form of normal. It is likely the vast majority of virus transmissions occurred before social distancing and lock down were established.
I do think, however that some form of management of parking would be prudent, particularly at popular hot spots.

I appreciate that no one sets out to enjoy their chosen activity with a view to having an accident, but these things happen. Plus, it may not be you that has the incident but a person who is less competent and has been influenced into going out by seeing others participating the the activity.
