Georgia Bike Sense: A Guide for Cyclists & Motorist

Motorists and Cyclists: Sharing Georgia’s Roads
In Georgia, motorists and cyclists share the road. Both have equal rights and responsibilities to obey all traffic laws. All road users should show respect and consideration to each other.
Georgia law was recently revised requiring motorists to allow a minimum of 3 feet clearance when passing a cyclist. Excerpt:
When passing a cyclist:
• Allow at least three feet between your vehicle and the bicycle. Just as the wind produced by a passing tractor-trailer can pull a car off course, so too can a passing car cause a cyclist to swerve out of control.

ATLANTA – An avid Bike Roswell! bicyclist who pushed to get a new “3 foot law” passed regarding bicycling safety was hit by a car on Sunday. The law requires drivers to move over three feet when passing a cyclist. The outcome of the accident is leading to increased education about this new law. (See full Article and Video here).
