3-foot rule research

Hello Fellow Bike Advocates:

The hearing for both the Senate (SB428) and House bill (HB496) on the 3 foot rule is this Thursday at 1 pm. I've asked that the meetings be staggered. Your attendance is helpful. Amendments have just been submitted in regard to these bills - see below.

.
Amendments:
AMENDMENT NO.1
On page 1, in line 6, after "lane" insert "or shoulder under certain circumstances".
AMENDMENT NO 2
On page 2, n line 8 after "IS" insert "LAWFULLY", and in line 9, after "LANE" insert "OR SHOULDER IF THE DRIVER INTENDS TO:
(1) Move the motor vehicle into or across the designated bicycle lane or shoulder;
(2) Turn into or across the designated bicycle lane or shoulder at an alley, driveway, or private road; or
(3) Exit an alley, driveway, or private road into or across the designated bicycle lane or shoulder.

Thank you!
