Aww nuts! I was going to say that, but thanks.
'tis true. The MA legislature, also known as "The General Court" rarely does the right thing. Often, there are serious gaps in the law, and this is one of them.
But, for the record: In MA, if you are issued a civil citation for a violation committed on a bicycle, it cannot effect your driving record. None of the dreaded "points on your license".
The fact that you committed the violation while riding a bicycle must be duly noted on the citation.
