Show respect to pedestrians On a shared pathway, reduce speeds when approaching pedestrians, give a verbal warning such as “Passing!”, or ring a bell when you’re about to pass, and provide at least 5 feet of passing clearance. Remember! The pedestrian you treat well on the pathway may be the driver who treats you well when you’re riding on the roadway. Watch for cars turning through gaps Riding too fast past a line of stopped cars can get you injured. When passing a line of vehicles SLOW DOWN AND BE ALERT, especially near driveway entrances. Motorists often can’t see past the line of vehicles and won’t know you’re there. Riding two abreast is permitted by law (A.R.S. 28-815). You can help drivers pass on two-lane roadways without bike lanes by riding single-file when safe to do so (stay at least 2 to 3 feet from the edge of the road). It’s always nice to give a friendly wave when drivers pass safely. Be cautious when riding side by side Be visible Wear white or brightly colored shirts and consider reflective clothing for nighttime riding. A white front headlight and red rear reflector are required on your bike if you ride at night. (A.R.S. 28-817). You should also use a red rear taillight. Riding without a headlight at night could result in a fine of up to $197. Sunrise and sunset can be dangerous times to ride When the sun is low in the sky, at sunrise and sunset, motorists may be blinded and not able to see you. Watch for cars ahead of you and coming up from behind. Consider different routes if you can during this time. Prepare yourself for cars pulling out unexpectedly into your path. A word about stop signs Arizona traffic law defines a stop as “Stop, if required, means complete cessation from movement.” While bicyclists are required to stop at stop signs, it is not necessary to put your foot on the ground to comply with the law. Running stop signs on major streets is dangerous and can result in a fine of up to $244 with points added to your driver’s license. (A.R.S. 28-855B) Riding through stop signs sets a bad example for younger riders and hurts the image of all bicyclists. Take the lane when appropriate Remember that you may “take the lane” if the lane is not wide enough for both a car and a bike (A.R.S. 28-815). Check behind to make sure it’s safe, signal your intentions, and take the lane by riding 1/3 to 1/2 of the way into the lane. When safe, move to the right to allow a vehicle to pass you. Watch out for glass, grates, oily pavement, loose gravel, cattle guards and railroad tracks. Check behind you to make sure it’s safe, signal your intentions, then move to the left to avoid the hazard. Watch for car doors in the bike lane WATCH FOR THE DOOR ZONE Motorists in parked vehicles may be unaware that you’re coming up on them from behind. If they open their door suddenly you could be injured. Where possible, stay at least 5 feet from the side of parked cars. You could be forced into the streetcar tracks where you could catch your wheels. Always slow down in congested areas and watch for people sitting in cars who might suddenly exit the car. Bike helmets greatly reduce your chances of injury in a crash. Pima County and City of Tucson laws require all bicyclists under age 18 to wear a helmet. According to national studies, 85% of brain injuries to bike riders can be prevented by wearing a helmet. Protect your head Be aware of your surroundings and especially of turning and side traffic. Make eye contact with drivers and be sure to get their attention. Even with eye contact, the driver may not see you or realize the speed you are going, so be prepared! Don’t use headphones or a cell phone when riding your bike because they reduce your ability to hear traffic. That could cost you your life. Be a defensive bike ‘driver’ Look ahead for hazardous railroad and streetcar tracks. Look behind you to make sure it’s safe, signal your intentions, then cross tracks as close to a right angle as possible (A.R.S. 28-815). Cross tracks carefully Sharing the Road Safely When riding your bike always be polite and be smart. Show respect for all users of the road, and you’ll get respect back. Cyclists and motorists use the same roads, with the same rules, same rights and responsibilities. This map is distributed free of charge. Funding is provided by the U.S. Department of Transportation and Pima County. Use extreme caution when merging across right turn only/drop lanes. These lanes require special care by bicyclists. Well before you reach the intersection, scan over your left shoulder and signal your intention to merge left across the lane. Always watch for fast-moving drivers who may not see you. Use caution when a bike lane merges Never ride against traffic Ride on the right with the flow of traffic- NEVER ride against traffic on the road, in a bike lane, or on a sidewalk. Drivers turning from the side cannot see you and approaching drivers will not expect you to be riding the wrong way (A.R.S. 28-721). NEVER! You are six times more likely to get hit! ALWAYS NEVER!
