I’ve been noticing more and more delivery workers riding motorcycles in the bike lanes here. When I try to politely point out to them that they should be using the usual traffic lanes they seem surprised, and not belligerent. I am imagining that the companies that hire them simply do not inform them of this. Is there anything we can do about this? Is there a Boston dept of bicycle safety that could talk to the hiring companies?original ↗

Could I be cited for failing to stop on my bicycle after making contact with someone’s car? It’s not clear to me whether MGL chapter 90 section 24(2)(a) applies to bicycles. If I make contact with a car, and I am not hurt and the car is not damaged, there are many cases where I would not feel safe sticking around an angry driver and would prefer to leave the scene for my own safety. Could I be cited for doing that?original ↗

Hi Josh, at many intersections, pedestrian traffic in a given direction is given a walk signal several seconds before vehicle traffic moving in the same direction. Can a biker waiting at a red light go when the same-direction pedestrians get a walk signal (ie not cutting across pedestrian traffic), or should the biker wait for the green light? “Bikes are vehicles” would make me think wait, “bikers can usually ride on sidewalks” would make me think go, I’m not a lawyer so I’m asking one. Thanks!original ↗

Hi Josh, in MA is it always the case that a right-turning vehicle must yield to a person on a bike going straight? In other words, what should I do if a car ahead of me starts turning right and in doing so blocks the bike lane?original ↗

Hi Josh, I was wondering if you could speak to the rights you have, or not have, to bike on the sidewalk. In CBDs/Downtown that is not allowed, but outside it is allowed to bike on the sidewalk in my understanding, unless there is a separated bike facility present. Thanks!original ↗

Hello, I biked on the Cape Cod Rail Trail, where crosswalks had a stop sign and a sign that said state law is to walk your bike across the crosswalk; do not ride. I had not seen these signs before. I have ridden other rail trails that did not have these signs For example, Minuteman Commuter Bikeway does not have these signs. If it is state law, shouldn’t all rail trail crosswalks have these signs? Does this law apply only to rail trails?original ↗

What should I do if I got hit by a car, got driver’s name and number but not plate, and didn’t get the police there and it’s a day later?original ↗

Is it legal to ride a bicycle on Storrow Drive? There are ‘Cars Only’ signs, but do those prohibit bicycles? They don’t seem to prohibit motorcycles, and seem to be mostly to keep the big moving trucks that get 'storrowed’ out.original ↗
