LOS ANGELES—The Los Angeles City Council voted Feb. 8 to instruct the City Attorney’s Office to draft an ordinance that would prohibit people from assembling, disassembling, and selling their bicycles in the public right-of-way.

The motion, introduced by Councilman Joe Buscaino, passed 10-4, with council members Marqueece Harris-Dawson, Nithya Raman, Curren Price, and Mike Bonin opposed. Harris-Dawson said the potential law could have gotten him arrested as a child.
