H.B. 91, Traffic Control Signs for Bicycles Passes House
Rep. Moss’ bill, Traffic Control Signs for Bicycles passed the House this afternoon. The bill would allow bicycle riders approaching a stop sign to yield the right-of-way to any approaching vehicle in the intersection. The bill would also allow a bicyclist approaching a steady red light to cautiously proceed through the intersection if the operator has come to a complete stop, the traffic-control signal has failed to detect the arrival of the bicycle, and no motor vehicle or pedestrian is approaching on the roadway to be crossed or entered or is at a distance from the intersection that constitutes an immediate hazard.
The bill passed with 49 yes votes and 20 no votes, and will now move on to the Senate.
