About This Item

The roads are for everyone. Bicyclist have the same rights as motorist. Walkers walk on the left hand side of the road. Scooters and bicycles stay on the right as far as possible. In Maine they aren't allowed to go over 20 MPH.

Motorists passing bicyclists too closely create a dangerous situation, which does not allow cyclists maneuvering room to avoid hazards, and can cause a wind blast. Maine's new law requires motorists to give at least three feet when passing bicyclists! Because bicyclists are slower and smaller than cars, a motorist doesn't need as much space or time to safely pass. The three-foot passing portion of the new law also allows motorists to cross a solid yellow centerline(s) to pass bicyclists when safe to do so.

The roads are for everyone. Remember to SEE, BE SEEN AND TO BE SAFE. Distractions, whether your in an automobile, riding a motorcycle, scooter or bicycle, or just walking, is what causes accidents. SO if we all pay attention we can prevent accidents.

Help us make our highways a safer place for all.

    Dropped Off 11/13/2011 3 Williams Kidz placed it in SON OF Treasure of the Abandoned Railroad Tunnels Colorado - 60.36 miles  Visit Log

    This cache is in a very old, abandoned railroad tunnel along Hwy 24, that goes NW from Colorado Springs to Woodland Park, Colorado. Bicyclists sometimes ride along Hwy 24, but not too often. Photos attached -- the old railroad trace is now a trail, so there are probably mountain bikers that go along here, but certainly no cars ! Photo 1857 is looking down onto Hwy 24 from the cache location, just outside the south entrance to the tunnel. Sorry the coin is hard to see in photo 1860; I tried and tried, but couldn't get a clear photo of both the coin and the tunnel.

    I discovered your TB in Cosmo's TB "Exchange" on the Brigham Young University Campus in Provo, UT. Before I dropped it back in the cache I took a picture of it outside the tree that hides Cosmo's TB "Exchange" cache. 🙂
