One armed German man cited for only have one brake on his bicycle

[JustAJ]

Good for him. I'd give him a thumbs up on the street!

We'll, on second thought.....

Just give him a hand, he'll appreciate it.

Is there an exemption in the law for people with only one arm? If not then it would be a good stop and good cite.

Disclaimer: I probably would not have wrote the ticket unless said person really needed it....

Jebus, some guys just can't get a brake.

His one hand controlled the front brake. The bike was modified to use reverse pedaling as the rear brake. It really had two brakes, the cop didn't know it.

Oh then no it was not a good cite.

Did the guy not tell the cop this???

It sounds goofy, and 99.9% of the time it would be ridiculous to write this citation.

However we all have been in that situation where someone get a citation no matter what due to their attitude and other circumstances. It's not overzealous, it's CYA and doing your job.

One example is "You just stopped me because I'm..."

I'm not picking a side, this just reminded the few bicycle citations I've issued.

Justifiable (on paper, absent any critical thought), yes; 'good', most certainly not.

Is his favorite book "A Farewell To Arm"?

You just can't escape the long arm of the law.

Shouldn't the heading read "one arm" man , not one armed?

It should read "one-armed".
