It means drive slowly. In this little hamlet the children seemed just fine but their dog, a scrawny whippet, did seem a bit dim witted.
And speaking of dogs.....Lets just ignore the notion that any spot a dog fouls is likely to be at least fairly warm. This must be set aside for a larger question. Are there in fact actual Dog Fouling Enforcement Officers? What are the qualifications? Do they have any additional duties? Do they have to collect "evidence"?
