What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I too like a previous post got a ticket for not stopping at a stop sign. I was in a bike path. The stop sign was a three way (T) stop. I was at the top of the T going straight. The stop sign was to allow cars from the bottom of the T to join the traffic at the top of the T. My question is Do I need to stop if I am in a bike lane and the bike lane never ends? In a four way stop the bike lane ends. First the solid line becomes dashes and then the line ends. The line starts up back on the other side of the intersection. Since the bike lane did not end I thought the stop sign did not apply. Because I was at the top of the T, there was no chance of a car hitting me if I did not stop unless they hit the sidewalk on to the right of me. The way the intersection was set up, I or another car were never at risk in any situation of hitting each other. Are there any specifics about bike lane out there?
