CHICAGO (AP) - Fewer bi cyclists are getting tickets in Chicago but most of the written citations are going to riders in low-income, predominantly Afri can-American neighborhoods. The Chicago Tribune obtained figures from the police last month under the Freedom of Informa tion Act showing bike citation totals dropping from over 4,000 in 2016 to 2,196 last year. Few er than 600 tickets were issued through late June. But the newspaper reported Sept. 30 that over half of the ci tations were issued in majority African American neighborhoods on the South and West sides in 2018 and 2019, disproportion ate numbers mirroring preceding years. Transportation equity advo cates have criticized the practice of ticketing bikers in impover ished areas as “racist and dis criminatory.” Chicago officials and the Illi nois attorney general approved a police consent decree in January, heightening scrutiny on misde meanor arrests.
