San Jose rolls out stricter abandoned shopping cart rules for large retailers
Briefly

San Jose is introducing new programs to tackle the problem of abandoned shopping carts, which are costly for the city. Retailers with more than 76 shopping carts must adopt one of three prevention measures, such as locking mechanisms or deposit systems. Local shoppers express mixed feelings about these changes. Meanwhile, a state bill aims to allow cities to return the carts to retailers directly, raising concerns from retailers about potential costs. The situation highlights the challenges cities face in managing public spaces and community resources effectively.
For me personally, I don't really carry change, so if I had to put a quarter in, it would be hard for me to do that all the time.
If someone stole your laptop, you know, and the police recover it, and then you go to the police station to pick that up after the fact, then you get hit with a bill for the police officer's time.
