From reading the statute it makes it seem that this is a problem that should be solved at inspection stations. There doesn’t seem to be any sort of enforcement besides saying that it won’t pass inspection.

If the police were to start enforcing stuff, I personally would prefer they start enforcing traffic signals. I’ve seen significantly more wrecks and injuries from people running reds than pickups high bumpers causing damage/harm. Granted, it’s be nice if lots of things were enforced, but the longer I live here it seems that less and less is happening.

Don't let the cops see you bike on sidewalks or they'll give you a ticket because you're supposed to ride in the roadway (got this ticket 7 years ago when I was a student). But don't let them see you bike on the road or they'll give you a ticket for impeding traffic (got this ticket a month later biking on bear boulevard, literally right next to JQH arena). Basically don't let the cops know you have a bike unless it's in your $70,000 pickup or on your kuat bike rack.
