The last time I got a ticket I was flying down a residential street, wicked downhill, through a stop sign. I quickly heard the sirens and made a quick right turn followed by a quick left turn. When the cop got close I innocentlt\y waved him past. He promptly pulled me over and said that if I had not waved him through he would have assumed I was trying to evade. After he wrote me up for the stop sign I looked down the street we were on. Every 100 meters there was another stop sign for about five blocks. I politely asked if he expected me to stop at each one. H esaid that he would be 'busy busy looking down at his paperwork' for the next few minutes.' I got on my bike and blew through every one.

If you have to ride in a city expect to get some tickets. I defer my court cases to the off season. When hte judge looks at the vehicle make and model he usually throws it out or the cop never shows up.
