Please take a moment to make a 2 minute call to promote bicycle safety!
From Carol Silldorff:
The 3 foot rule passed unanimously by the Senate requiring vehicles to give 3' of space when passing a bicyclist. However, without passing the House - this bill will not become law.
Your support matters. As a constituent, you can make a big difference. A one-minute call to your legislator is taken seriously -please take action now.
When you are riding a bike, do you want vehicles to give you a minimum of 3 feet when passing you on the road? Of course you do! If you live in the following Districts, please take a moment and contact your Delegate and ask that they support House Bill 461, the 3 foot rule, which is an important bicycle safety bill already in existence in over 20 other states. To view the bill go here: <a href="http://mlis.state.md.us/2010rs/billfile/hb0461.htm">http://mlis.state.md.us/2010rs/billfile/hb0461.htm</a>;
