Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety is a Shared Responsibility. Share the road.   As more Californians choose walking and bicycling as primary modes of transportation, creating a safer highway environment for all roadway users is increasingly important. We all share the responsibility to make sure California roads are safe for everyone. This is achieved by following the rules of the road, watching out for others, and using courtesy while on the road. The California Highway Patrol uses a comprehensive statewide approach to promote and enforce safe pedestrian, bicyclist, and motorist behavior, ensuring we all share the road safely.  Traffic Safety For Bicyclists

​The California Pedestrian and Bicyclist Enforcement and Education Project The CHP implements a traffic safety grant funded by the Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, to reduce pedestrian and bicyclist collisions and victims. The project includes both enhanced enforcement and a public education and awareness campaign focusing on traffic safety, which includes motorist behavior when driving in the presence of pedestrians and bicyclists. The program provides comprehensive traffic educational events, “rodeos,” community informational sessions and collaboration, distributes bicycle helmets and other safety equipment, educational materials, and training for CHP personnel.  Bicycle Safety CourseThe CHP has created a Bicycle Safety Course which holds valuable information related to bicycle safety and maintenance.

What is an e-bike?

According to California Vehicle Code (CVC) 312.5, an “electric bicycle” is a bicycle equipped with fully operable pedals and an electric motor of less than 750 watts. CVC Section 312.5(a) defines e-bikes into three classes depending on the bicycle’s level of assistance and speed:

(1)   A “class 1 electric bicycle,” or “low-speed pedal-assisted electric bicycle,” is a bicycle equipped with a motor that provides assistance only when the rider is pedaling and that ceases to provide assistance when the bicycle reaches the speed of 20 miles per hour.
(2)   A “class 2 electric bicycle,” or “low-speed throttle-assisted electric bicycle,” is a bicycle equipped with a motor that may be used exclusively to propel the bicycle and that ceases to provide assistance when the bicycle reaches the speed of 20 miles per hour.
(3)   A “class 3 electric bicycle,” or “speed pedal-assisted electric bicycle,” is a bicycle equipped with a speedometer and a motor that provides assistance only when the rider is pedaling and that ceases to provide assistance when the bicycle reaches the speed of 28 miles per hour.

State Parks e-bike policy

The following is State Parks’ e-bike policy:

No person shall operate an e-bike in a park unit of the State Parks System, except on public roadways [i] and in areas allowed through a Superintendent’s Order.
E-bike use on trails and nonpublic, controlled-access [ii] roads shall be allowed only where designated by Superintendent’s Order in the following park unit classifications:

State recreation area
State vehicular recreation area
Evaluation of a Tax Exemption for Zero-Emission Buses
The ZEB exemption, the ICT regulation, and various other policies make a distinction between conventional buses and ZEBs. Conventional buses burn diesel, compressed natural gas, or other fuels that emit greenhouse gases (GHGs) and other air pollutants. In contrast, ZEBs run on electricity or hydrogen and do not produce tailpipe emissions. The main purposes of policies that promote ZEB adoption are to reduce GHGs and other air pollution.
Requires Transit Agencies to Buy ZEBs. State statutes establish goals for reducing statewide GHG emission and direct the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to take regulatory actions to meet these goals. In December 2018, CARB adopted the ICT regulation. This regulation requires transit agencies to gradually convert their entire bus fleets to ZEBs.
ICT Requirements Ramp Up Over Time. The ICT regulation sets annual requirements for the minimum share of bus purchases that must be ZEBs. From 2023 to 2025, at least 25 percent of the buses purchased by large transit agencies in each calendar year must be ZEBs. From 2026 to 2028, the ICT imposes a similar 25 percent requirement on small transit agencies while raising the requirement for large transit agencies to 50 percent. Finally, the ICT prohibits transit agencies from purchasing conventional buses starting in 2029. The standard useful life of a bus is 12 years, so CARB set these requirements with an eye toward completing the statewide transition to ZEBs by 2040.
CARB Exempts Transit Agencies From ICT Requirements Under Some Conditions. Under the ICT, CARB will exempt a transit agency from the requirements described above under specified conditions outside the agency’s control, including:

The agency declares a financial emergency.
Delayed construction of infrastructure.
Range, gradeability, or weight class requirements that cannot be met with available ZEBs.

State and Federal Funding for ZEB Adoption
In addition to the ZEB exemption, several other state and federal programs offer funding that transit agencies may use to convert their bus fleets to ZEBs. In this section, we briefly highlight some key sources of such funding.
Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP). TIRCP is one of the main ongoing sources of funding available for ZEB adoption.
Regulatory Agenda - NYSDEC
The Department proposes to adopt regulations that implement a northern puffer fish minimum size limit, possession limit and/or open season for recreational and/or commercial fisheries. The Department proposes to adopt regulations for the management of cobia, a quota-based fishery. The Department proposes to adopt regulations that would require Marine and Coastal District Party and Charter Boat License holders to retain racks of filleted scup and black sea bass for inspection by Law Enforcement. This rulemaking will require a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis for Small Businesses and Local Government and a Rural Area Flexibility Analysis. Contact: John Maniscalco, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, 123 Kings Park Blvd., Kings Park, NY 11754. Telephone: 631-444-0430. E-mail: [email protected].  Please reference 6 NYCRR Part 40 when emailing.6 NYCRR Part 41, Sanitary Condition of Shellfish Lands. As necessary, the Department will propose to amend regulations that specify the classification (certified or uncertified) of shellfish lands. These amendments are necessary to protect public health by designating lands that do not meet bacteriological water quality criteria as uncertified or closed to shellfish harvesting. Shellfish lands that meet the water quality criteria are designated as certified (open) for the taking of shellfish. The Department also proposes that shellfish lands that have not been subject to a sanitary survey conducted within the previous twelve (12) years be designated as uncertified. Shellfish are defined in law as oysters, scallops, and all kinds of clams and mussels. This rulemaking may require a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis for Small Businesses and Local Government and a Rural Area Flexibility Analysis. Contact: Matt Richards, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, 123 Kings Park Blvd., Kings Park, NY 11754. Telephone: 631-444-0491. E-mail: [email protected].  Please reference 6 NYCRR Part 41 when emailing.6 NYCRR Part 42, Sanitary Control Over Shellfish.

Electric Bicycles: Class 1 Electric Bicycles (E-Bikes) are allowed in Regional Parks wherever conventional bicycles are allowed unless otherwise posted. E-Bike riders must adhere to the same trail rules as conventional bicycle riders. Class 1 E-Bikes are pedal-assist only, with no throttle, and have a maximum assisted speed of 20 mph. 

The Regional Parks offer both paved bike routes for street cycling and unpaved trails for off-road riding and mountain biking. Below is a list of some popular trails and parks. For a complete list, visit our Find a Park page and search for parks with biking.
Joe Rodota and West County Trail
The 8.5-mile Joe Rodota Trail runs from downtown Santa Rosa to Sebastopol. The 5.5-mile West County Regional Trail runs from Sebastopol to Forestville. Sections provide views of farms, vineyards and open space. These paved, off-street trails are perfect for casual cyclists, families, or anyone interested in a flat, smooth route.
Santa Rosa Creek Trail
This 2.14-mile, off-street trail connects the Prince Memorial Greenway in downtown Santa Rosa with Willowside Road in the countryside west of the city. The paved trail runs along the creek, with views of vineyards and ranches, and is a great option for families or other leisure riders.
Spring Lake Regional Park
Our most popular Santa Rosa park features our most popular trail, a paved, 3.5-mile multi-use loop around Spring Lake. The trail has some gentle climbs and links to off-road trails.

Traffic Signal Bicycle Detection Upgrades	

signal Detection cameras for cyclistsWith its robust network of trails and bike lanes, Danville is a desirable destination for cyclists. Whether you're bike commuter, a weekend road biker, or simply riding downtown with your family to the Farmer's Market, Danville has a lot to offer. To support bicycle travel, the Town is working to enhance your biking experience through the installation of bicycle detection systems at signalized intersections. Traditional in-ground traffic signal detection systems are magnetic and can at times be problematic for detecting cyclists accurately and consistently. New video camera detection technologies help solve that problem.When the cyclist arrives at a traffic signal equipped with the camera technology, it is able to "see" and recognize the bike and then places a call to signal.  A small green bicycle sign equipped with a blue bicycle light mounted on the signal pole (located to the cyclists right) will then illuminate to provide the cyclist with the message that they have been detected.Intersections with Video Detection and Bike IndicationTo date, 15 camera detection systems have been installed at seven key intersections along major cycling routes:No.IntersectionDirection# Cameras1Green Valley Rd / Diablo Rd/McCauley RdEastbound / Westbound/Northbound32Diablo Rd / Ackerman Dr / El Cerro BlvdEastbound / Westbound/Northbound33Diablo Rd / Camino TassajaraEastbound/Westbound24Danville Blvd / El Cerro BlvdWestbound15Railroad Ave / Hartz AveEastbound16Sycamore Valley Rd / Brookside DrSouthbound17San Ramon Valley Blvd / Railroad Ave / Hartz AveAll Directions4
