Rhode Island H7354 allows motorcycles to pass stopped or slow-moving vehicles in the same lane at low speeds.
Rhode Island H7354 amends the state's motor vehicle laws to permit lane filtering for motorcycles. Lane filtering involves overtaking and passing another vehicle that is stopped or traveling at a speed not exceeding ten miles per hour in the same direction and lane. This is permissible when the motorcycle is on a road with lanes wide enough to pass safely, the motorcycle is not exceeding twenty miles per hour, and conditions allow for continued safe operation. This act would take effect upon passage.
