As of 1 March 2016, new bicycle laws apply to all road users and cyclists in NSW. Drivers, bicycles riders and pedestrians all need to “Go Together” safely on our roads.
Importantly, drivers who pass a bicycle rider must allow a distance of at least 1 metre when the speed limit is 60km per hour or less; and at least 1.5 metres when the speed limit is greater than 60km per hour.
