Brake Laws
Well I got pulled over today for not having a brake on my bike, and I tried to argue otherwise. Apparently, your legs aren't good enough. To me, this is total bull****. According to California law, "No person shall operate a bicycle on a roadway unless it is equipped with a brake which will enable the operator to make one braked wheel skid on dry, level, clean pavement." I believe I'm fully capable of locking my rear wheel up and skidding, which to me, counts as braking. Is there any way I can get out of this?
