That stuff burns me up.
I told the cop who was writing me up he should be doing this where it mattered. I asked why no cops ever gave tickets on my block in queens. Delivery guys zoom up and down the sidewalks all the time...very crowded, seniors with canes and walkers and wheelchairs, people pushing baby strollers, small children walking, dogs, etc. The night after I got my summons i saw a couple on road bikes - the guy was holding an infant - maybe 6-8 mos at most - on the top tube as they rode on the sidewalk. Brilliant.
He told me they definitely patrolled that area for this behavior.
Bull.
