Montana HB124 requires bicycles to ride opposite the flow of traffic unless accompanied by a flag vehicle escort.

Montana HB124 revises bicycle laws, mandating that bicycles must be ridden opposite the flow of traffic unless accompanied by a flag vehicle escort. This bill repeals sections 61-8-602 and 61-8-605 of the Montana Code Annotated, which previously allowed bicycles to ride with the flow of traffic under certain conditions. The new law aims to enhance safety for cyclists by standardizing their position on the road.
