Massachusetts H3620 allows motorcycle operators to travel in breakdown lanes at low speeds during heavy traffic.

Massachusetts H3620 amends the General Laws to allow motorcycle operators to travel in the right breakdown lane or left access lane when moving at speeds of ten miles per hour or less. The bill also permits motorcyclists to split lanes at speeds up to twenty-five miles per hour, provided they yield to any disabled or emergency vehicles already in those lanes. This change aims to provide safer travel options for motorcyclists during periods of heavy traffic. The act will take effect ninety days after passage and will sunset eighteen months later.
