    Types of Bicycle Accidents

    Bicycle Lanes

    A bicycle lane is a designated traffic lane for bicyclists. These lanes are marked by a solid white line which becomes a dotted line ending before it reaches the corner. Different from a simple white line showing the edge of the road, a bicycle lane follows specific width requirements and is clearly marked as a bike lane with symbols and/or signs. Bicycle lanes are sometimes painted a bright green color in order to increase visibility. Treat a bicycle lane painted bright green just like any other bicycle lane. Drivers of motorized bicycles should use bicycle lanes carefully to avoid collisions with bicyclists.
