AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR AND OTHER VEHICLES -- OPERATION OF BICYCLES

HB 7670 requires bicyclists to slow down or stop at stop signs and yield to vehicles that pose an immediate hazard, such as cars approaching the intersection. It specifically applies to bicyclists operating on public roads and modifies existing traffic laws to clarify that they must stop if safety requires it before entering an intersection. After slowing or stopping and yielding to vehicles, bicyclists may proceed without stopping if safe. The bill does not change other bicycle operation rules, like signaling turns.
