State Bike Laws Center

Have you ever been told by someone that you are not allowed "by law" to be on the road as a cyclist? Maybe someone has pushed you off the median or hurled a bottle in your direction and you wished there was something you could do about it. Well you DO have a right to ride on the road and YOU CAN do something about the pesky motorists that thinks you "can't" be there.

The League of American Bicyclists has created a web page where you can easily search the local laws of your state or one you could be visiting on your next trip. The State Bike Laws Center has all the info needed to equip any cyclist with the knowledge needed to challenge any ideas that bicycles aren't allowed.

But since we all know most people can't drive...Wear Your Helmet.
