Walk It Through: The Cyclist on the Shoulder

A bicycle on a county road, three feet of room, and a turn signal given in time.

On a county road, a driver comes up behind a cyclist riding near the edge.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

A car passing a cyclist on a rural road. A crash with the cyclist, a bike lane in a city, and the cyclist's own duties are not worked through here.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
