All we hear about is car/bicycle accident and just assume it's always the car's fault, but I bet that's far from accurate. Any stats on which get ticketed in an accident?
80% of bicycle moving violations to Black folk does sound odd. ‘Dafugg? Theyre ticketing people for having friends riding on the handlebar?
Ticketing people for no lights? Where I live when I’m riding home after dark about half of it I don’t WANT to be seen.
Only been stopped once and that was maybe six or seven years back. Plain clothes Cop, Black guy, cool Cop car IIRC badge on cord around his neck like in the movies. I think he stopped me to see who I was. Told me I was invisible out there. I explained that was the point, that being the sort of place where they needed guys like him at night.
