Would you have the same complaint if the red light cameras were able to ticket cyclists? Not one bit of difference, imo between a red light cam and a police officer staking out an intersection.

Pay your fine (unless you didn't actually run a red light) and tackle the speeding issue another day. They aren't related.
You don't seem to understand the point of the post. Rich people don't like bicyclists riding on what they consider "their" roads so they get the cops to target cyclists and charge them with questionable moving violations.

Would you like to comment on that topic?
