It was the cop's fault because he wasn't left-handed. If he were, all the motorists would have noticed him due to the conspicuity of his firearm.

All smart-aleck remarks aside, that's really sad to hear, Bek. My personal experiences with bike cops are among the most positive I've had with law enforcement. Will you keep us apprised of the details as you learn them?
