There are more and more bicycle riders on the road each year. The average age of riders is increasing. Cycling is a great way to commute, a great way to exercise and a great way to see the beautiful state of Maine. But it can be dangerous. 

By law, bicycles on the roadway are vehicles, with the same rights and responsibilities as motor vehicles. Yet cyclists are oftentimes not treated with respect by other vehicles.There are also specific Maine laws that protect cyclists, such as the law that requires a minimum of three feet between a passing motorist and a cyclist. Unfortunately many drivers are unaware of this law or do not follow it. 

More Cyclists and More Accidents:

In 2016, there were 840 bicyclists killed in crashes with other vehicles in the United States. As you might imagine, when a crash occurs between motor vehicle and a bike rider, it's the rider who is more often injured.
