"This is such an excellent resource. I’ve been commuting to school/work for 12 years and consider myself to be a pretty good rider, but I learned so much here. I’ve read plenty of things online and even a few books, but this addressed a lot of concerns I had and presented new info in a way that’s easy to comprehend (the graphics and videos helped a lot).
"I liked that I could go back in when I wanted and it kept my place.
"I’ve been trying out what I learned on my rides this week, and it’s already making a big difference. Thanks!"

Cycling laws
Discover what rights & duties you have while you're out on the road.
A framework for coöperating
Traffic laws provide us with guidelines for interacting on the road.
They help us predict what others will likely do, and let others know what to expect from us.
Knowing the law and riding within it also reduces the number of decisions we need to make.
The same rights & duties
The only exceptions are:
- where the law specifies otherwise, or
- where a right or duty cannot apply to someone operating a bike.
Making sense of the legalese
The rules of the road are often written without properly taking cyclists into account.
The laws can vary widely from one province or state to another, and from one city to another.
We'll help you interpret these often complex requirements, and understand how they apply to you.
Here you'll find the laws for many provinces & states, with links to municipal regulations for select locations.

Hello Allan,
Thank you for the heads-up [Defensive Cycling procedures for dismissing a ticket], the great service and course. I am glad I learned about it from a friend. I have to say that I learned a lot from the course and I now feel I am a safer rider.
Thanks again!
