I brought my bike up from Fargo, my home town, to Missoula, my college town. In Fargo, biking isn't a big thing compared to Missoula, where there is a separate lane on the streets for biking, and 25% of the traffic is bikes. So needless to say I am not extremely savvy on the bike rules. Tonight, I got pulled over by a motorcycle cop for not having a "bike light" I didnt even know what a bike light is until tonight (yea i know ignorance to the law wont get you out of a ticket) but im wondering if I have a case saying that you dont need a bike light in Fargo, and the bike was just transported to Missoula.
but isnt it standard to give a grace period of a few weeks or whatever to get your vehicle into appliance with the law?
fuck you man
cool, thanks zach
