This post serves two purposes:
1) To ask Steve to seriously consider adding a Donut Shop Forum for asking cops questions about laws, tickets and letting us cops clue all of the other BARFers in on new trends, laws, policies and enforcement activities that may significantly impact you as a motorist or more specifically as a motocyclist.
2) (FOR EXAMPLE) To let everyone know there is a huge "click-it or ticket" campaign going on nationwide. Maybe you have heard commercials on the radio or seen them on TV, but his is a really big campaign that had a kick of on May 3rd and will continue through May 31st, 2005. Each county and city was offered funding ($$$) for overtime to increase enforcement of seatbelt and child car-seat laws. So, be sure to click-it when you are in you cage and let your freinds and family know there is an all-out effort to get $85 (first offense fine) out of each and every un-belted citizen in the country, this month (budget balancing maybe?). Details at www.buckleupamerica.org
Soooo... Other than the extra cops (both motorcops and cruiser cops) on the street writing lots and lots of tickets, it should be good times for motorcyclists until June 1st.. as long as you have a helmet on and keep your front wheel on the pavement, you will likely go pretty much unnoticed or find officers preoccupied with the un-belted cagers. YMMV.
