You have to laugh that the longboarder was the one to get pulled over.

As much as I think that police could spend their time catching real criminals............the long boarder was pulled over because he didn't have a headlamp or flashing clipon rearlight. Easy rule to abide, and my grandfather says "the golden rule is to not break more than one law at a time".

He may have been busted for weaving in and out of the on-coming lane.

Who hires these people? Don't they have standards of any kind?

Well, Portland is one of the only cities to legally recognize and accept skateboarding.
So I guess the guy broke a skateboard law?

There is the problem right there. Carving is the freaking point of longboarding, its also how you control speed. Many LEOs are just ignorant of whats on the roads.
