[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It’s not infeasible, it’s just that it would lead to people being cited or ticketed in situations that many reasonable observers would say don’t merit a penalty. But sometimes that’s just how the law is. My bigger concern with helmet laws is that invariably, white cyclists would ride without a helmet whenever they want, but the laws would become a pretext to stop Black or Latino cyclists, or would be a charge that gets tacked on if they’re involved in some other entanglement with the law. [/quote] This is why DC got rid of bicycle registration a few years ago. It was only being enforced against minorities. [/quote] Oh, that's good -- glad to hear it. [/quote]
