Help Streetsblog Shine a Light on SFPD’s Bike Crackdown — Submit Your Video

Streetsblog needs you and your devices to provide eyes and ears on the Wiggle, Page Street, and wherever the SFPD is lurking to ticket bicycle riders who harmlessly roll stop signs.

It's been clear from the start that Park Station's bike crackdown is a huge waste of resources. But there are things that video can help us understand better. What are bike riders doing that triggers a ticket? Are tickets going to people who actually violate others' right-of-way? Are police accurately enforcing laws?

So, the next time you head out in the Park Station district, if you've got a few minutes and you come across officers staked out at an intersection, get some video footage. Let's see if we can get a look at this bike enforcement in action.

Although no SFPD bike stings were reported this morning on social media, it's a good bet they'll be back soon -- and not just during rush hour. Police were issuing citations to people on bikes between 10 p.m. and midnight last night, according to posts on Twitter and Facebook.
