Difficulty: EasyBicycles and Micro-Mobility Devices

When exiting a private driveway, alley, or parking lot, a motor vehicle driver is legally required to yield the right-of-way to bicyclists and micro-mobility operators traveling on an intersecting sidewalk or multi-use path.

Answer: Answer

Answer

The statement is True. Drivers exiting private driveways or alleys must yield the right-of-way to bicyclists and micro-mobility operators on intersecting sidewalks or paths.
Drivers entering a roadway from a driveway, building, alley, or private road must stop prior to reaching the sidewalk and yield to all approaching pedestrians, bicyclists, and micro-mobility device operators.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the vehicle maneuver and location.
The motor vehicle is exiting private property (driveway/alley) and crossing a public sidewalk/pathway.
Traffic laws distinguish between vehicles already on public rights-of-way and those entering from private land.
2
Apply right-of-way rules for driveway exits and vulnerable road users.
Traffic entering from private land must yield to all traffic lawfully occupying adjacent public sidewalks, bike paths, or roadways.
Bicyclists and micro-mobility operators on sidewalks or designated paths have the right-of-way over vehicles entering from private driveways.
