(Before It's News)

If you are a bicyclist, you’ve probably got a ticket at some point in your life for riding outside of the bicycle lane.

“I can’t believe you are busting my balls,” the guy says. “I am doing the world a favor for riding my bike. It’s pouring rain out here.”

Right in front of the cop, vehicles are parked on the bus lane:

“Look at this guy double parked right here, in a bus lane, and you’re not giving him a ticket,” the guy explains.

His protests were not taken into account by the cop, who could have at least give him a warning.

So he made a video proving his point, and showing the absurdity of a law that does not adapt to the circumstances of a busy city:
