Questions from 2008
Is
it against the law to ride a bike on the sidewalk if ur trying to get off it, because it is dangerous to go on a bike while
on the road. So can you get on it first on the sidewalk and go onto the road? I am only 17 and got 2 tickets already,
the cops think I was riding the bike for a distance on the sidewalk. And plus my mom gets worried when I ride on
the street.
If there is a law
stating that it is illegal to ride your bike on a sidewalk, then, according to the law, it doesn't matter how long you ride
your bike on the side walk (2 feet or 2 blocks), you can be cited.
How can I find out the crime rate in a certain are
of Tallahassee?
Most of the information that you are
looking for can be found by searching the internet (Google, Yahoo, etc.). This is one website I found by searching
Yahoo; http://tallahassee.areaconnect.com/crime1.htm
Another place to look is on the FBI site.
They have statistics from year to year, but because of the reporting process, they are a year behind. Here is their website;
http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/ucr.htm
If you would like to find more detailed information
you can contact the Tallahassee PD and see what they will give you. Most information is public record, but you will
probably have to pay a certain fee for what you receive.

You should contact
your local law enforcement to advise them of the situation. If you feel that you might be in danger you could check into the
process of getting a restraining order. Also, you might contact the domestic abuse advocates in your area. They are very
helpful with these types of situations and can guide you in the right direction.
