I'm just glad that they're not doing so (so far at least) during Bike Month.

The last couple of years they've been doing that to "educate" cyclists that they have to follow the laws just like everybody else (as if cyclists didn't know that already)

I'm suspecting a July campaign.

It kind of tics me off when advocacy groups put in great effort to provide incentives for people to ride bikes, only to have police decide to provide a disincentive that coordinateswith the incentive
