I haven’t gotten my bike yet, but I’ve sat through traffic a couple times over the course of this week and I’ve been thinking. Once I do get on the road with my bike, should I try to move around cars in heavy traffic?
I’ve seen people conflicted on whether to do this or not, and it is kind of illegal except in like California lol.
Depends on the scenario. If traffic is light and there’s an opportunity to move to the front without disrupting traffic? Go for it.
If things are effectively gridlocked and you can get past cars without squeezing? Again, go for it.
It’s the middle scenarios that are trickier. Use your best judgement and do what is permitted by law.
