I bike commute in SF and haven't seen any traffic enforcement at all since before COVID. I see a moving violation of some sort nearly every single day I bike (usually running red lights or right turn on red where prohibited by big glowing signs).

Apparently SF is issuing 10x fewer tickets than before COVID and 100x fewer tickets than 10 years ago: https://web.archive.org/web/20240518142347/https://www.sfchr...

> While SFPD has recently met its Vision Zero target of issuing half of the traffic citations for the top five causes of collisions, it appears that this is largely a result of fewer citations overall — not an increased commitment to Focus on the Five enforcement, Mandelman’s office said.

Ugh incentives y'all.
