Happened in Georgia
For anyone wondering. Georgia the state not the country
Wait they are invading Georgia?
For those (like me) wondering what part of Georgia, it was apparently Sandy Springs.
It's amazing how it can be right next to both Atlanta (proper) and Dunwoody, yet be so much worse.
IDK, cops in the city can be plenty bad too especially when it comes to laws regarding ebikes.
Yeah, but at least the city has increasingly-decent bike infrastructure.
Kinda depends on the city, but yeah some places are improving a bit.
No, I mean the City of Atlanta specifically is doing better, especially inside or within about a mile outside of the Beltline. I basically don't drive anymore unless I'm going somewhere like Buckhead or OTP.
Police officers don't need to know the laws unfortunately. And depending on how much melanin you have determines if you should explain or if youre better off just saying "yes sir can I go".
A friend cycling in London was stopped for turning right at a "no right turns except cyclists" junction - police didn't even want to go read the sign that they were told to enforce!
Shouldn't a doctor know about the human body, a plumber about plumbs or the law enforcement about law?
Biking with electricity is the devil!
Like foozbawl!
Isn't that one of the states where jay walking tickets were high to target certain demographics?

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
