In the midst of National Bike Month, Governor Nathan Deal signed HB 101, the “Better Bicycling Bill,” which, among other improvements to bicycling safety, establishes a 3 foot safe passing distance in Georgia!
The changes made by HB 101 will go into effect on July 1, 2011.
Thanks to all of you who contacted legislators to express your support for safer bicycling conditions in Georgia!
