Sec. B5-6.4. Leaving bicycle lane.

Once having entered a bicycle lane, no person riding or operating a bicycle shall leave such lane except at intersections. Provided, however, that such person may leave a bicycle lane upon dismounting from a bicycle, walking the same, and being subject then to all laws applicable to pedestrians. Provided, further, that such person may leave the bicycle lane between intersections in order to make a U-turn, where such a turn is permissible for vehicular traffic or to turn into driveways on the right or left hand sides of the bicycle lane. Upon leaving a bicycle lane, the rider or operator of such bicycle shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles and shall not leave the bicycle lane until it is safe to do so.

(Ord. No. NS-1004.106, § 1, 2-1-72)
