Explanation
In California, drivers are allowed to enter a bike lane no more than 200 feet before making a right turn. Before entering the lane, check your mirrors and blind spots for bicyclists. Always yield to any bicyclists in the lane, and only turn when it is safe. Use your turn signal to indicate your intention and stay alert for cyclists approaching from behind. Entering the bike lane too early or failing to yield can create dangerous situations for bicyclists.
