Bike Lane Intersection Rules: Your Guide to Safe Cycling

* Cyclists must use the bike lane. It is illegal to cycle in the general purpose (car) traffic lanes if there is a bike lane present at the intersection.

* Cyclists must obey all traffic signs and signals. This includes stop signs, red lights, and yield signs.

* Cyclists must signal before turning. This helps to communicate your intentions to other road users.

* Cyclists must be aware of pedestrians. Pedestrians always have the right of way, so cyclists must yield to them when necessary.

* Cyclists must be extra careful when making left turns. This is because cars turning right often do not see cyclists who are making left turns.
