  1. Essential Biking Rules Every Cyclist Should Know in Lancaster County

  2. Follow All Traffic Signs and Signals Whether you bike for fun or purchase one as your primary mode of transportation, it's essential to know the rules to avoid tickets or accidents. A necessary rule that all bicyclists must follow is traffic signs and signals.

  3. Use Biking Hand Signals to Change Lanes Whether on a bicycle or motorcycle, knowing how to use hand signals can help motorists understand what you plan on doing next while out on the road. One important signal is using your left arm for all turns so drivers know where you intend on going at intersections when they cannot see your face.

  4. Stay to the Right and Pass on the Left Bicyclists are also required by law to ride on the right side of the road with at least 3 feet between them and parked cars when drivers can't see them in their rearview mirrors. It's essential not only for bikers' safety but also for motorists'.

  5. Use Bicycle Lanes When Available The first rule is to use bicycle lanes when available. It can be challenging to share space with cars and other vehicles on city streets, so you'll need all the protection you can get! The following rule is never riding against traffic because drivers may not see you coming.

  6. Cell Phones and Cycling Most people don't think twice about using their cell phones while driving, but many fail to recognize that the same rules apply when operating a bike.

  7. Follow All-State- and City-Specific Helmet Laws For your biking trip to be a safe and fun one, you should know all of the state-specific rules and laws. In some states, it is illegal to ride without a helmet, while in others, helmets are not required but strongly recommended.

  8. Never Ride Without Lights. A cyclist's only defense against being hit is to know when cars are coming before they can visually identify the vehicle - this means that cyclists need lights on their bikes! Never ride without lights even during daylight hours.
