most have been cool. I have been told to get off the sidewalk before, but that is about it. My only "run in" with a cop was last winter on my commute home from work, I was at 10th and market. The light going east west was yellow and my southbound light was red. There was no one coming for a while in either direction except for a cop that was closer to 9th than 10th, so I went. The cop went faster and almost hit me. When I threw my hands up in the air to show I was annoyed, He got on the loud speaker and told me to stop. I kept riding and he drove away. I was not about to get invovled in arguing about how wrong each of us was when he had a badge and a gun.
