Two things worth noting: 1. It wouldn't be very expensive to represent this bicyclist on a non-criminal citation (state forfeiture or municipal ordinance), which this is.
2. If the ticket was wrongfully issued to him and the driver is more than 50 percent at fault, i wouldn't be hard to find a lawyer to represent him on the personal injury matter for a contingent fee. That same lawyer ought to throw in representing him on the citation without charging him, because it is important to defeat the citation to recover on the personal injury action.

Back as late as 1999, BTA had such a fund, though there were never more than a few hundred dollars in it.
