Coexist

Encouraging motorists and bicyclists to share the road.

The key messages of the campaign are as follows:

1.) Reminding motorists to leave at least 3 feet of space when passing bicyclists, and to pass slowly and carefully.

2.) Reminding bicyclists to ride predictably in the roadway.

3.) Reminding motorists to check their side mirrors for approaching bicyclists before opening their car doors after parking.

4.) Reminding bicyclists to ride at least 3 feet outside of the dangerous door zone - the area just next to parked cars, where doors can suddenly and dangerously fly open.
