If memory serves me, this is now the 6th time this video has been posted.

Seventh time is the charm!

But can we start ticketing for redundant posting?

How about recumbent postings?

It should be re-posted frequently.

thanks.... pretty easy to have other fellow cyclists make a person feel like an asshole. you and #Bob Kastigar kept me from deleting my account. guess there are some cool people on here after all.

I would be sure to issue a ticket to NING for the redundant posting for not getting off their assess and getting the forum interface a little more functional and a little less clunky. Consider that anything not in the ten most recently active threads is as good as deleted for most new or infrequent users, and the forum search function is a disaster.

I for one am glad it was posted 6 times, because this is the first time I clicked on it.  Great stuff!

I had never seen it before either. 

 

Instead of lamenting that it has been posted several times, how about posting a link to the first discussion? That way we could post comments that haven't been made several times already.

There wasn't a discussion -or not much of one anyhow.  Much more here!

 

Each successive posting of the video mostly just had bitching  by the same people that it was posted before...

Never saw it before and it was hilarious.  I don't know about New York but I am unaware of any such law in Illinois.  Whenever an officer writes a ticket there is a citation to either the state or municipal law that was allegedly broken.  I would love to see Casey's ticket and see what the officer cited. Casey's first clue that he should have never paid the ticket would have been the lack of a citation unless the officer was a real tool and made something up.  I suspect he wrote something like "riding outside of bike lane" without citing any statute or ordinance.

An interesting discussion here about the incident and the specific legal codes involved in the NYC case.

Well, as I've moved, begrudgingly, from my live work space on western to jefferson park area, my ride has multiplied times 7.... so, I was doing some searching after seeing this to find out if I'd get hassled by police for not being in a bike lane. I've heard they are cracking down or are soon to be cracking down on cyclists in Chicago.
