In regards to the repeal of Chapter 85: Section 11A. Bicycles; registration, does this now mean that all current registration laws are now repealed, and/or that future town/city laws requiring bicycle registration are forbidden?<br>
I find this particularly interesting given that Brookline is currently in the planning stages of a bill requiring mandatory bike registration. And while this bill has been proposed under the pretense of helping track down stolen bikes, it seems that the underlying sentiment behind it would be to further penalize bikers bad riding habits.<br>
It would seem to me that in the event of bikers breaking traffic laws that the biker in question is ticketed, and not the bike. Any input from people with police incounters in Cambraidge. Also I would imagine that it would futher discourage people from riding in the first place.<br>
