I don't understand how a cyclist would get a ticket. Just ride somewhere the cop can't go or just ride away from it. I had one of those things yell at me over the loudspeaker once for running a red light (not that his fat ass doesn't run red lights in non emergency situations) but it didn't do anything more and I just rode away quickly. I have been chased by cops before but not on a bike.
I guess some people like stopping for cops. In most of my interactions with them the conversation is so boring and one sided so I just tend to avoid them.
There is a speed trap near me but it is only on one side and I have yet to trip it because the road isn't yet long enough at that point. One day though, one day!
