<DIV>Matt,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I agree that bikers, pedestrians, etc are sometimes at fault and they ought
be cited. However, the majority of violations I see, especially stop
signal and stop sign violations are by vehicles. When a vehicle hits
something during a stop sign or stop signal violation, the damage to the thing
struck is likely be much more devastating than if the same object is struck by a
violating bicycle or pedestrian.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cite them all!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>W.</DIV>

<BR> I
believe those infractions are covered under the codes that Stephanie
mentioned. Why not go after the bikers for once. The same ones that I have
almost pancaked numerous times. <BR> <BR>MD<BR><BR> <BR>
