Protesting a ticket, man deliberately crashes bike into objects blocking bike lanes

After receiving a $50 ticket for straying from the bike lane, a New York biker filmed a protest video montage of himself crashing into objects while remaining lawfully in the bike lane. Some of the crashes appear to be fairly painful.

The biker, Casey Neistat, who films documentaries for an HBO show, released the video on YouTube. It received about 150,000 hits in two days.

“Dear New York City, ticket the people blocking the bike lanes, not bikers,” he concluded. “And give me my $50 back.”

1. Bravo.

First, start ticketing the people who block the bike lanes.

Then start ticketing the reckless idiots who ride against the flow of traffic.
