📖 Topic overview
This section covers how to safely share the road with bicyclists, motorcyclists, large trucks/buses, and slow-moving farm equipment. Bicyclists have the same rights and duties as motorists, and drivers must leave at least 3 feet of clearance when passing. Motorcyclists are harder to judge for distance and speed because of their smaller size, and many car/motorcycle crashes happen when a car turns in front of a motorcycle the driver didn't see.
Heavily tested points include the 3-foot passing rule for bicyclists, the truck/bus 'No-Zone' blind spots, motorcycle lane-filtering rules (only allowed on roads with 2+ same-direction lanes, a posted speed limit of 45 mph or less, and the motorcycle itself not exceeding 15 mph), and the meaning of the orange slow-moving-vehicle triangle (maximum 25 mph).
A common mistake is assuming a motorcycle is farther away or slower than it really is, or pulling back into a lane too soon right after passing a motorcycle or truck — both can force the rider or truck driver to react suddenly.
How much clearance must a driver give when passing a bicyclist?
At least 3 feet — and never honk at a bicyclist while passing, since it can startle them and cause a crash.
When is lane filtering allowed for motorcycles in Arizona?
Only on a street with at least 2 adjacent lanes going the same direction, where the posted speed limit is 45 mph or less, and the motorcycle does not exceed 15 mph while filtering.
What does the orange slow-moving-vehicle triangle mean?
It warns that the vehicle displaying it — such as farm machinery — cannot travel faster than 25 mph and has the legal right to be on the road, so drivers behind it should slow down and keep a safe following distance.
