From what I have heard, Waller cops are now following groups of riders through town and writing tickets any time they ride more than single file. This is counter to the law, which says we can ride two abreast if we are not hindering the flow of traffic. It sounds like pure harassment to me, and I would love to see a bike friendly attorney take them to court. I honestly think the County Judge and some of the other leadership are doing a good job trying to reach out and build some bridges between cyclists and motorists, but there are obviously some others, specifically in law enforcement roles that have decided they are just going to try to harass cyclists to the point that they will stop riding there. I would encourage every rider who is ticketed for borderline stuff (like riding two abreast when there is not anybody else trying to pass) to challenge the ticket in court. The key to any effort to push back is building a case that the tickets they are writing are not legit and are being written to harass, not to enforce the law.


Now if you got a ticket for not stopping at a stop sign, or for riding two abreast when others are trying to pass, well then shame on you.
