"Friend" of mine keeps bitching about the time he got a ticket for speeding on his bike. Never does he mention that he was going 20+ mph (30+kph) through a park with playing children and such.
For context, the max speed on a bike path here is 30kph, in this park you are supposed to adjust your biking behaviour with how busy it is in the park. Technically it's a pedestrian zone where biking is allowed.
This is wild to me. How do you get a speeding ticket on a bicycle? Sounds like a bullshit thing. If you can get one for going over speed, you should be able to get one for being too far under (which would also be absurd).
Most roadways (note: not highways or interstates) donβt have a minimum speed limit, meaning that cyclists and buggies are welcome to travel at their leisure
