§ 12.60.100 — Riding on sidewalks

12.60.100 - Riding on sidewalks.

A. No person shall operate a bicycle upon a sidewalk within a business district. B. Whenever any person is operating a bicycle upon a sidewalk, such person shall yield the right-of-way to any pedestrian and shall give an audible signal before overtaking and passing such pedestrian. C. Persons operating bicycles across a roadway or driveway and along a crosswalk from a sidewalk or path have all the duties applicable to pedestrians under the same circumstances. Such persons similarly have the rights of pedestrians, but only if the bicyclist was entitled to use the sidewalk or path, and the approach and entry into the roadway or driveway are made at a speed no greater than an ordinary walk so that other drivers may anticipate the necessity to yield when required.
