The "pulled a wagon" one is another aspect. Is the answerer assuming a vehicle pulled the wagon? I immediately wondered if the wagon was pulled by hand or animal or a vehicle.

If I bring a box of chocolate cars into the park and eat them, that's a violation too, right?

(If Schrodinger brings a backpack into the park but doesn't know what's in it, is that a violation? Did you pack your own luggage today, sir/maam?)

This lead me to question about size. Clearly a traditional animal dragged sized one is a vehicle. But those small ones pulled by hand are not.

Same goes for things like kites and quadrocopters.

Wagons are vehicles in the strictest since.

  • Why use a strictest sense? Why not a sense considered appropriate assuming the context?

    • The context is:

      > You might know of some rule in your jurisdiction which overrides local rules, and allows certain classes of vehicles. Please disregard these rules; the park isn't necessarily in your jurisdiction. Or perhaps your religion allows certain rules to be overridden. Again, please answer the question of whether the rule is violated (not whether the violation should be allowed).
