Police bicycle training video
Despite some of the stilted dialog, this is actually pretty good. The rules are the same in Boston (and Mass, generally) . What are the chances the BPD would do something like this. Wait, don’t answer that.

Boston/MA needs a whole series of these. I want Episode 2 to be about Right of Way, ignorance of which is my personal pet peeve.
I mean, come on. Most people did go to Driver’s Ed… didn’t they?
(Gotta love that hip soundtrack, daddy-o!)

This video is for the cops, tho, not the public. Sad they have to remind cops what the law is.
Driver’s ed was a long time ago. Long before they got the Howie Carr endorsed sense of entitlement.
That’s foot tappin music.

I realize that, but aside from SF police code designations, it’s not that far away from a PSA.
Cops have to remember a whole slew of that crap. Refreshers are good, especially quasi-entertaining ones. Getting it wrong at the scene is a bad thing.

True.
I think Boston cops are more likely to take classes on how to maximize overtime while minimizing effort expended.
