Bike Laws
Every state has its own laws regulating the use of bicycles on public roadways. For example, California has many laws that require bicyclists to meet certain safety standards. In California, there is a requirement to use safety equipment. Specifically, minor bicyclists must use safety helmets. Other equipment requirements in California include:
- White or yellow reflectors that are visible from 300 feet;
- White safety lamps that are visible from 300 feet;
- White or yellow reflectors on each pedal, foot, or ankle, visible from the front and back of the bicycle and from 200 feet; and
