Pulled over for being to sexy

Typical cycling attire as in spandex short shirts and spandex cut jerseys is far more revealing attire than a jacket and a skirt.

For consistencies sake I expect every cyclist in NYC to be stopped and harassed for this reason.

I'm tired of the tyrants going half way. Let's get this full measure insanity underway already.

We have a naked bike ride here in town every year, lol. If that doesn't cause a pile up I dont think a skirt will.

Where's "here"? I need to move.

Here is a photo from the article. Apparently it is the same skirt she was wearing when pulled over:

PHOTO.

And, yes. That is pretty ridiculous. I was expecting her to almost be nude or what not but she looks like anyone else going down the street.

On a side note, my mother did cause a wreck about 10 years ago. lol She was involved in a protest and a motorist driving by was looking at her and rammed into another car. Oops! LOL!

So I guess it happens but the officer in this case was still being ridiculous.

There are no laws like that in Canada and when younger I wore next to nothing all summer long, and bicylcled lots. Those men walking around bare chested in their shorts nearly cause me, the MAJORITY CITIZEN OF MY COUNTRY, because at age 20, 52 % are female, and that stat continues to grow, to have an accident. NOT! I'm too civilized.

I would never obey a law like that and would be very loud about why.

What is wrong with Americans, how can accept all those laws, arbitrary, sexist and insane?

What law are you referring to?

This in NYC and all other sorts of control laws that criminalize people for dressing a certain way, the seeds of the earth, freedom to conduct ourselves in ways that don't rob from, murder, rape or exhort money from others, ie. basic common law, for those could be seen as virtures not even laws. But that this is a sexist, discrminatory law, that no one would ever would allow. I think NYC needs lots of women and even grandmas bicycling in their skirts.

No one owns another person. Its that basic. In fact if the started making those laws here, it would be time to go nude, I'd rather see that than clothes nazi's around. We grew up with a family skinny dipping and being hippies, even my grandparents.

No. We just like to pretend to be prudish. Do you think anyone is actually "outraged" over janet Jackson's nipple or Tony "The Weiner" Weiner's johnson? God no, everyone could honestly care less.

But we want to put on a good show of being positively horrified so that our neighbors will think we're moral and good and Christian and upstanding and wholesome.

Then when we're done we go back to our basement bondage dungeons and perform unnatural acts involving Muppet dolls.

She didn't break a law because there is no law to break. Try not to overreact here... if this story is true (and there is only one side because the girl didn't get the cop's name) then it happened because a cop overstepped the boundaries (which would not surprise me)...

If there is anything to learn here, it's to make sure you get the name of the cop that confronts you (should that happen) because she did not, there will be no follow up...

That is ridiculous.

Every single summer in my town... we have this grizzly old guy who rides a red scooter in a flesh colored speedo and he never gets harassed. (I mean, whenever the weather gets nice, this guy is practically riding around naked with his long grey hair and beard billowing in the breeze while he scoots along in his red vespa... and apparently no one complains because I still see him doing his 'thang'.)

This young lady is dressed modestly, even the skirt isn't that short... so what on earth was the officer thinking when he pulled her aside?
Other than, perhaps, getting a date. But chastising someone who has done nothing wrong is certainly the wrong way to go about courting.

I only read the article. I do believe her, so this would even be more alarming than not if there was no such law. It would actually mean they're trying to condition people to their NWO rules, accomodating their modesty and globalism, which isn't a virtue but is actually repression especially of women, and we won't be programmed like this.

America is too god damn prudish.

Yeah, it seems we really are....I used to think that we weren't. Then I made friends with people in Europe. Wow... We are really prudish.

Look at that skirt, there is nothing inappropriate or disturbing about it... Everything is covered up. All you see is her legs.... So what?

Are we supposed to force our women to wear a burka now? I don't think so.

Or... it could just be a cop who is a jerk.

It has been known to happen on occasion.

I want to laugh, cry and freak out all at the same time.

She looks sweet! What in the world was wrong with the officer? I was expecting her to be in something really revealing, but I grew up on the beach and so to see women in thongs and string bikini tops walking all over town was just another day at the beach. I feel for the lady.

I agree completely. You grew up in a similar way to our clan then, lol.

I think the policeman was just being a bit lecherous.

Stopping a woman for some phony reason was probably his equivalent of saying ''do you come here often, love ?''.

Well it all depends on if he was going to ticket her. She said he was actually going to interrupt her and prohibit her from continuing on her way and ticket her, but only after she convinced him she was from Holland, did he let her off the hook.

Which brings up the question, would a ticket for a non existent offense be legal? Also, it brings up the question, what laws exist that no one knows? Not that anything other than basic common law is even legal, all the rest are all crimes against humanity.

I thought she was going to be wearing a thong or something. If this is true, the officer was probably just trying to hit on her.

But it's embarrassing how prudish people are. She was fully dressed! She went home and put pants on. Another great message for the US to send abroad: Don't show your legs in the US! But ban the Burqa!

I like these pic, of Amsterdam Bicyclists. A few are in dresses.

Hope we get more of this here.

At the time, Rijcken said, she wasn’t sure that she hadn’t broken the law. “If you’re by yourself in a different country and a police guy comes really angrily at you, you get scared,” she said.

This is not the first time an NYPD officer has stopped cyclists for completely frivolous non-offenses. In April, a private school administrator received a ticket for biking with a tote bag on her handlebars. The police have not responded to a Streetsblog inquiry about Rijcken’s allegations.

Her harassment at the hands of the police has colored Rijcken’s perception of not only New York City but the United States. “I was shocked,” she said. “In Holland, people refer to America as the country of freedom.”

Good message here. What is with all this new police harrassment even when people aren't breaking laws?

This is hilarious, even a video on how to wear high heels while biking, lol.
