As I was approaching a bike rack from the road, I rode up a curb cut get to it. And a cop stopped me. Don t do that again. It turns out that I was riding my bike on the sidewalk, albeit for only 10 feet to a bike rack. But it s against the law to ride your bike on the sidewalk.

But it also shouldn t be forgotten in the crafting of public policy. It often is. Massachusetts lawmakers introduce about 15,000 bills per biennium.
