Whose Lane is it? Sharing the road with bicyclists!
Driving with bicyclists is the same as driving with other cars- A bicycle is a vehicle and is required
by law to follow all rules of the road.
Why bicyclists take the lane- It is often the safest place (not sidewalks) they can also trigger the light
or signals.
Key Points:
Treat bicyclists as drivers of vehicles
Both road users can take action to avoid crashes
Pay attention at intersections and driveways
Understand when and why take the lane
Abide by the 3' rule when passing
Roadways users are all people — Share the road to keep PEOPLE safe
