Sounds like a good idea:) I'm guessing this is a law that won't be enforced too often when no accident occurs but will be something that can used to charge a driver when they collide with a biker. In Toronto we could use a rule like this on our streets with street cars. Image a 2 lane road with a train riding on the inside lane and cars trying to speed around on the outside lane to pass it. If you are biking on these streets you have about 3 inches of clearance between yourself and the side walk and about 12 inches between you and the car, and that assumes the car has about 12 inches of clearance between it and the street car. It's not for the faint of heart. > The law doesn't require motorists to stay behind cyclists until a narrow road ends or widens -- but allows a driver to pass within 3 feet if he slows to a safe speed, said CHP Officer Mike Harris. I think this is a very reasonable compromise. That way car's aren't forced to be stuck behind a slow biker, who probably doesn't want the car tailgating them anyway.
