>That is the trouble - knowing all the laws you might be breaking :-) A local woman was ticketed recently for passing a stopped school bus - on her bicycle. Yes, we all understand that she could have injured a child with her bike. So could a jogger or another kid on a skateboard. Read the below link and see if you can tell what "the law" really is...

Hi Jim,

Really? Did she pay the fine? A bicycle is not defined as a "vehicle" since it is human powered:
  S 159. Vehicle.  Every device in, upon, or by which any person or
property is or may be transported or drawn upon a highway, except
devices moved by human power or used exclusively upon stationary rails
or tracks.
