A truck or bus always seems to be going faster than it really is because of its size and louder noise. Therefore, a good driver always keeps the speed of the vehicle under control. Obstructing traffic while going up hills is a common complaint against truckers. You, as a driver, or as a pedestrian, need to know and follow the rules of the road. You should also be aware of other traffic and be prepared for emergency situations.
Bicycle riding is an important part of transportation, particularly to work and to school.
Because bicyclists may be on any road at any time, drivers must always be alert for bicycle traffic. Bicycles are considered vehicles in Georgia, as in every other state. Since bicycles are vehicles, bicyclists must obey the same traffic laws as other drivers. They must ride on the right side of the road, and obey all traffic signs and signals, just like other traffic. A list of state laws concerning bicycles is on page 6.
