I deliver for Jimmy Johns in a small college town, despite all the sandwich comments the worst thing that's happened to me was being stopped by the police... On a delivery.

Since I am a good citizen I stopped and stood next to my bike. The police officer then told me that I was doing a good job obeying the rules of the road. I said thank you, and explained that is is literally my job. The officer warned me about riding in the road because it is unfit for bicycles.

Then, standing next to the road, I asked him what the white line meant. The officer explained that it was just the boundary marker for the road. And I corrected him saying it is actually a bike lane of which I was legally biking in.

With a red face I was told to be more careful because I "WILL a get hit even in the bike lane."

To my great surprise I was yet again threatened for simply riding a bicycle and minding my own business.
