Bicycle laws
• Delaware’s bicycle laws are found in Title 21 of the Delaware Code, Chapter 41, Subchapter XII

Bicycle Friendly Delaware Act
• Bicycle traffic signals are defined and enabled as an engineering tool for DelDOT
• Requires that motorists change lanes when passing bicycles where travel lanes are too narrow to share
• Clarifies how far to the right bicyclists must ride

Bicycle Friendly Delaware Act
• Motorists may not honk horns at bicyclists except in cases of imminent danger
• Bicyclists are permitted to ride two abreast• Bicyclists may yield at stop signs when the
way is clear rather than coming to a full stop (the “Delaware Yield”)

Connections to trails
• SR 1 Low-Stress Bikeways Study goals:• Identify continuous low-stress
bikeway routes on either sideof SR 1
• Identify low-stress crossingsof SR 1 that enable propertyaccess and connect the tworoutes
• Develop recommendationsfor which segments shouldbe prioritized for design andconstruction
