A bit much but I'm not remotely surprised. like if she had had a few apples or a dozen or something then sure fine her. but it's just one apple. in a bag. provided by the airline she flew on. The amount isn't even slightly relevant. It only takes one outside pest or disease to potentially wreak havoc and expose new threats to a large area of existing crops. Whether it's a sack of apples or just one doesn't really matter when you understand the reason behind the rules. The airline part is.... That's the only reason I don't think she should have been fined tbh. They should've taken the apple and explained it to her, but I mean.... I'm not super bothered by this. --- "I got a rollatruc, look." <cite>CanuckCowboy posted [p:900180896] in Woman fine...
