Relates to the operation of vehicles when approaching bicyclists on the roadway

This bill amends New York's Vehicle and Traffic Law to improve safety for bicyclists. It requires drivers approaching bicyclists on roadways to either change lanes (if safe to do so) or reduce speed if lane-changing isn't possible or would require crossing a yellow line. The law directly affects all drivers operating vehicles near bicyclists on public roads. The change takes immediate effect and aims to reduce collisions by clarifying driver responsibilities when sharing the road.
