Summons to court bike leaning a bike on a wall!

[calumniate]

You're in big, big trouble young man!

If the officer doesn't show up, they can't prove you guilty. (Innocent until proven guilty).

To the OP Was it CPS or Bylaw that issued it?

[habs]

Hey all - sorry for the hiatus. It was a cop not a BL officer.

They dropped my summons... of course. I went in today.

Summons dropped upon presenting myself at the window. A bit anti climatic.. but I guess common sense kicked in. :nut:

I was sure to lean my bike up against the courthouse wall along side my brethren. Thanks for all the laughs!

Keep on truckin.. or riding.

At the same time, things don't work very smoothly in China just because people take advantage of those small freedoms and do stupid and lazy things like parking their car in the middle of a very busy, crowded sidewalk.

They do this in Moscow all the time. A driver told me that the police can't ticket a vehicle because they can't prove who was driving. When they come back to their car they just glance around and if there are no cops they get in and drive away.
