New law in Wisconsin makes cycling a little safe and easier.

Cyclists will know, understand and appreciate the new law. The job is to educate motorists.

The Bicycle Tune-up Bill, B265 has several provisions to help keep cyclists safe.

·         That it is now legal for people who ride bicycles to signal turns with either the right or the left hand

·         Allow vehicle operators to pass slow moving vehicles across a solid yellow line when it is safe to do so.

There are also several provisions to just clean up cycling laws and make them current.

·         To use red rear lights in place of rear reflectors.

·         Allow the use of a red rear light in lieu of a rear reflector.

·         Adding handcycles to the definition of bicycles

·         Allow the use of studded tires. (It is Wisconsin!)

·         Allow municipalities to regulate moped parking.

Good job Wisconsin Cyclist!

See Governor Signs Bicycle “Tune-up” Bill for more about the bill and the efforts to get it passed.
