Chris, maybe my post wasn't clear about the red LEDs on bicycles...they are only a problem when the clueless bicyclist mounts or shows them FORWARD (just like police bicycles use...right?). You cannot emit any red light forward on any vehicle (including bicycles) in California unless it is on authorized emergency equipment and LE takes this section of the VC very, very seriously at every level.
