Is it Illegal to Ride Your Bike on the Sidewalk in Arizona?

To put it as simply as possible, no, but also yes. The state of Arizona does not have a law against bicyclists riding their bikes on sidewalks with other pedestrians. However, the state does allow each city to determine their specific bike laws. It could be legal in the state, but still illegal in the city you are riding in. This being said, it is important to know the laws before biking in a new area.

Not knowing the bike laws in an area could not only cause danger to you but also pedestrians and motorists around you. With the weather warming up, more people are likely to be out and about so be sure to do your research and know the bike laws in your area.  Read the rest of this entry >>
