PLease note that I was not posting the statute because I believe she was worthy of being stopped. I just looked it up so I could poke a bit of fun at our friends from Texas, who like to remind us of how much more free they are than the rest of us poor saps (well, except for maybe the Alaskans). All in good fun, though, as there are arbitrary and stupid people in all of our 57 states.
Seems pretty clear to me that the cop felt disrespected and then did what he did to make himself feel more relevant.
And I’m with you. I like to face my death head on, so walking against the traffic for me. That all of my walks are on old fire roads/logging trails keeps the traffic down.
My wife got nervous with me riding a bike, so I bought a cell phone so if I got run over I could call her and let her know I was dead.
