I asked a scooter officer to please move out of the crosswalk as he was blocking pedestrian traffic. He moved and I thanked him for moving. Unfortunately he pulled up alongside, inspected my bike and found that I did not have my front headlight on my bicycle at that moment. The light mount was on the handlebars and I do own a light but it was not on at the time. Unsympathetically he instructed a second officer to write me a ticket. The second officer however incorrectly wrote his badge number on the ticket and admitted to writing it down incorrectly.

Update:
I went to court today and the second officer, that wrote the ticket, showed up. here is the two second rundown.
-We both approached the bench
-Introduced ourselves to the judge
-Judge asked the cop the describe the situation
-The officer said (not a direct quote but close enough
I was working the critical mass demonstration when I was asked by a supervisor to write a ticket to the cyclist
-The judge immediately stopped the officer and stated that because he did not witness the action the ticket was not legal and was dismissed. The officer said OK and that was it.
My case was dismissed in about 45 seconds. I arrived at the courthouse at 12:55 and left about 1:05, quick and easy.
