Bicyclists are still required to stop at stop signs in California.  A push to allow California cyclists to treat stop signs as yield signs failed in October of 2021. Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed AB122, also known as the Safety Stop bill. Current Laws still require anyone on a bike to stop at a stop sign. Bicyclists on the road have the same rights as motorists in California and therefore must follow the same traffic laws and observe the same right-of-way. This requirement applies to intersections with stops signs and traffic lights. Until changes are made, stopping at a stop sign is the law and bicyclists can be ticketed for violations.
