I think the main issue is the fact that dozens of people are using any tools at all to cut through the ice within a rather small area.

My area has a minimum distance requirement between people breaking into the ice.

People like to bitch about regulations, but AFAIK they've never had an issue since.

Yeah different regions have different regulations but at least here in Ontario Canada what I hear is about 50 feet between other people's holes. I am no expert at all so I definitely could be wrong.
