Obey All Traffic Laws
On the roadway, a bicycle is a vehicle. Bicyclists have the same rights as drivers, but they also have the same responsibilities, including having to make a complete stop at stop signs and red lights. Save $209.*
Ride With Traffic
Riding against traffic is a major cause of bike-car collisions. Follow the law by riding with traffic. Save $151.*
Be Predictable - Act Like a Car
Ride straight - don't weave around parked cars. When in a group, ride two abreast only on quiet streets and roads, and single up when cars need to pass.
Warn Others When Approaching
Bicyclists must yield to pedestrians. Be courteous - ring your bell or give a friendly greeting when approaching from behind.
Signal All Turns
Look back before you make a lane change or turn. Use your arm to signal an upcoming turn.
Lights At Night
Use a headlight and a red rear reflector - or better yet, a red light - when riding at night. Save $65.*
Ride to the Right
Stay as close to the edge of the road as is practicable, so as to allow others to pass.
*Amount represents 'waiver' penalty. Actual fine amounts may vary.
