It is highly doubtful that this ("$500 ‘Speeding Tickets’ for Riding BIKES Over 15 MPH") is being done at all - given that the OP's source appears to a scare mongering article from a highly biased "project" with an agenda of reporting click-baited dogmatic us vs. them rants (i.e. - the evil forces in control of the government in general, and police forces in specific.)

Note the lack of any reference to anyone actually receiving "$500 ‘Speeding Tickets’ for Riding BIKES Over 15 MPH."

Also note that some people probably do not not need any reference to credible evidence to be sure that their paranoia is justified.
