On a Bicycle
Utah Code 41-6a-1105 — a stop sign may be treated as a yield after slowing down
A cyclist going slower than traffic rides as near as practicable to the right edge, except when passing, preparing a left turn, going straight past a right turn only lane, or avoiding hazards, including a lane too narrow to share side by side.
Who handles this in Utah: legal aid programs and the state offices, listed in the Utah directory.
- Cyclists ride in the designated direction of traffic.
- No more than two abreast, except on paths or lanes set aside for bicycles, and two abreast riders do not impede normal traffic and stay within one lane.
A cyclist approaching a stop sign may go through without stopping after slowing to a reasonable speed and yielding to pedestrians, traffic in the intersection, and oncoming traffic that is an immediate hazard. That does not apply at an active railroad crossing.
