What I haven’t seen mentioned yet is that we have a established registration and licensing system to streamline identification, ticketing, and consequences for vehicles, however it’s not used for bicyclists. There are pros and cons and ambiguity to overcome. Is biking considered a privilege like cars? Is it really “pedestrian” with electric bikes now?
Tickets for bikes isn’t something that can be tacked on to the existing DMV infrastructure easily so of course they have to be processed differently for now.
Now if bikes/riders were licensed too, that may be easier to ticket just like vehicles, but good luck trying to push that law through.
Wow, swing and a miss, bud. That is so, so not what I said at all.
In no way did I imply “people should be punished more harshly”. Nor did I address anything about weight.
Jeez, stop making stuff up.
