Excerpt’s from Vicky Clarke’s Jan. 2 interview:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This morning, KUOW aired a radio interview between Casey Martin and Washington Bikes Policy Director Vicky Clarke about the new safe passing law, which went into effect on Jan. 1, 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are excerpts from the interview:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting this year, the state is telling drivers if there is more than one lane going your direction, you must get into the left lane when passing a bicyclist, just like you do when passing slower cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe difference between a safe pass with someone slowing and passing at a distance and an unsafe pass is quite literally the difference between life and death,\u201d said Vicky Clarke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vicky Clarke is with the advocacy group Washington Bikes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If there is only one lane going your way and there is no bike lane, the state says you must slow down and leave at least 3 feet of space between your car and the cyclist. This also applies when passing tractors and people on horseback. If you have trouble guessing how much 3 feet is, Vicky Clarke says \u201cmove over. When you see someone on a bike, just move over.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can listen to the interview streaming throughout the day on kuow.org.
