When we updated our California bike law summary poster today (PDF, with clickable links: https://bikemonterey.org/wp-content/uploads/Bike-law-summary-2025.pdf ), we added a note about stop signs: To advocate for a new California law to allow a "Bicycle Safety Stop" / "Stop-As-Yield" / "Idaho Stop" at stop signs, contact CalBike.org! https://bikemonterey.org/bicycle-safety-stop-for-california.html

Another person we met and paused to chat with on Feb 23 was Michael, in North Monterey. He’s mindful of California bicycle laws such as the equipment requirements for reflectors and headlight. To share those details with others, make use of the bilingual (Spanish-English) California bike law summaries on our Tool Kit page: https://bikemonterey.org/her-helmet-thursdays/goals-and-overview/her-helmet-resources. He also knows that—although he sometimes wears a helmet—California law only requires helmets for minors (adults can decide for themselves).

Among people we met while biking Seaside, California on Feb 23, 2025 is Seaside resident Breanna (pictured).

She is holding a Bicycling Monterey mini-flier. You are welcome to share mini-fliers too: https://bikemonterey.org/wp-content/uploads/2025-4-to-a-pg-mini-fliers-BikeMontereyDOTorg.pdf. Also available are bilingual (Spanish-English) California bike law summaries, "Who we are / What we do" posters, and more; go to https://bikemonterey.org/her-helmet-thursdays/goals-and-overview/her-helmet-resources.

Over Breanna's shoulder is a Monterey-Salinas Transit bus, an orange Jazz Line bus. For "Monterey-Salinas Transit: What to do if bike racks on buses are full, and other MST tips,” go to https://bikemonterey.org/monterey-salinas-transit-tips-for-people-who-bike.html

California Bicycle Laws

In this summary, we focused on those laws that, when not abided by, are more likely to result in citations in Monterey County. (We’re increasingly familiar with what citations are most often issued. Why? See “Section 35. Options in lieu of fine for bicycling-related citation” in of our
"DIRECTORY: Monterey County Bicycling Resources and Bike Community Leaders.” (Use browser find window to find “citation.”) https://bikemonterey.org/resources/bicycle-shops-in-monterey-county

Education not citation (whenever appropriate).

Help that happen. Share "Group Social Bike Rides — Instrux for Participants" with youth and adults doing ride-outs / #BikeParties / #BikeRuns / #CriticalMass rides in your community. https://bikemonterey.org/rideout-or-rude-out-make-your-bike-party-safe-legal-and-fun.html
