Thankfully they stencil it for users to see.

It even has pictures for those with literacy issues.

Let's see... 16' leash means a 32' diameter around you...or more than a 3 story building.... for everyone else to avoid because you're "following the rules".

Not that you should be considerate of others....

The world is a lot more crowded than it was in the 50s old man.

Don't like the rules??  Go get 'em changed.

Rules are made for those too stupid to figure it out for themselves.  Easy to hide rude behavior behind them.  Your long leash lets your dog out of your control and he causes a wreck or bites  someone, and rules will not save you from liability.

Rules say nothing about leash length.  They say "under control".  We took time early to train our dog fully.  He responds to AKC voice commands and hand gestures without hesitation.  No worries about liability here.

I anticipated this answer from the jump. The follow up is equally as easy to predict:

If he's that well behaved, why would you need or want a 16' leash?

I don't expect a reasonable answer... probably something akin to "because I can".... taking us right back to being considerate of those around you.
