WDC, you can try. last time someone attempted a similar stunt, they ended up with their tighty-whitey waistband at their ears and hoisted up a flagpole. And that's not a good look for you.WilliamDC said:jp: i'm going to stuff you in a locker next time you pass me in the hall

i never pictured JP as the high school bully. turns out, he's a sweep the leg guy. "You couldn't leave well enough alone, could you, little twerp? No, you had to push it.

Yeah..JP is from Jersey after all. Do not misunderestimate his relationships my friend.

The question to them is how are you to know that you're supposed to stop at a light when the road is closed? As it is, it's clear that pedestrians don't treat either the bike lanes or the lights with the deference they would if it were an open road. therefore, you fail to see how the light is something you're supposed to obey.
@Ryan J
You'll have to appear for the ticket as it is an actual summons. You'll likely have to go to the Red Hook Community Justice Center. Dress appropriately (I would actually wear a suit) and when you get there, try to meet with the DA. Explain that you have no idea about the rules (as suggested by JP) and that with a clean record could the DA offer a dismissal.
The good thing is that this is a real court with a real DA, so you get to talk to and deal with the prosecutor (in my wrong way case, the DA asked for dismissal). The bad news is that you just can't send in a fine.

Nobody on this forum disagrees with the absurdity of the situation. The topic came up yesterday over post-ride beers - how do you navigate past the initial "confrontation" stage with a cop/motorist/dumbass on foot to where any productive exchange can take place. It ain't easy.Jeff Owens said:What were the stats from the last 4-5 years in the greater metropolitan area? Zero people killed by cyclists and thousands killed by cars?
