Explanation
Drivers should not drive in a bike lane for more than 200 feet before making a right turn at an intersection, as this is illegal. Bike lanes are designed to separate bicycle traffic from motorized vehicle traffic, and should be treated as a dedicated lane for cyclists. Before crossing a bike lane to turn, make sure it is safe to do so and check for oncoming bicyclists. Always signal your intention to turn, yield the right-of-way if necessary, and then move into the bike lane before making the turn.
