Stopping in the middle of the pavement, without due regard for those following behind you, because someone called your mobile and it you were so excited it overloaded your brain (already overloaded with the simple task of breathing): $1,000 fine.
Stopping in the middle of the pavement with your ten stupid-arse friends in a huddle big enough to block the whole ****ing thing: $5,000 + a Friday and Saturday night in the cells, even if the offence happened on a Tuesday.
I may have to draw up a citizen's charter on this, as long as I get popular support. Hell, this could get me elected!!

If you include "Walking with a group of friends in a line across the entire pavement" , and expanding it to cover things like shopping centres as well, i'd vote for you
