Another lawyer is convinced that the Portland Police Bureau (PPB) is biased against bicyclists. Robert Mionske makes the case in a recent column for VeloNews. In that column, he talks about the three recent cases reckless driving accidents in where motorists were not charged after hitting a cyclist as a result of breaking the law. In each of those cases, the Portland police cited specific reasons that those motorists were not charged or even ticketed for a moving violation. Mionske introduces a fourth example where the PPB did cite a cyclist even though their previously stated criteria for doing so had not been met. In other words, the PPB has a double-standard for determining whether an accident should result in an investigation, criminal charges and/or a traffic citation. That standard is heavily biased in favor of motorists to the detriment of cyclists.
