Question: Which of the following would NOT be considered effective notice to prohibit trespassing on enclosed land under the Trespass Act?

Answer options:

  • A sign specifying 'No Trespassing' posted at a visible access point.
  • A fence, natural boundary, or combination that a 'reasonable person would expect to prevent access'. ✅ A security guard shouting 'Keep Out!' from a distance to a passerby on a public road.
  • A written 'no trespass' notice personally handed to an individual by the property owner.

Correct answer: A security guard shouting 'Keep Out!' from a distance to a passerby on a public road.

Explanation: Under Trespass Act, sections 4(1)(a) and 4(1)(b), enclosed land is defined, and notice can be given orally or in writing. Shouting from a distance to a passerby on a public road does not constitute entering enclosed land or receiving direct notice while on or entering the land.
