So there's so many cops in your area that they have some dedicated to just policing bicycle laws? Or is your area one of those where "with all other crime being solved..." that they are now policing bicycle laws?

In my area, bicycle cops are the officers on bicycles, so of course they've ridden bikes before. In my area, officers that enforce bicycle laws are just, you know, officers.

I really don't understand your point. Are you nitpicking the wording of my figure of speech?

The officer I spoke to didn't understand what a right hook was, despite standing next to a bicycle.
