SB 379

This bill requires the operator of an automobile, motorcycle, moped, motor

bicycle, or bicycle to yield the right-of-way to certain vehicles approaching or

maneuvering through a roundabout.

Under current law, whenever any roadway has been divided into two or more

clearly indicated lanes, the operator of a vehicle is required to drive within a single

lane and may not deviate from the lane unless such movement can be made with

safety to vehicles approaching from the rear.

Under this bill, a person operating a vehicle that is not an automobile,

motorcycle, moped, motor bicycle, or bicycle within a roundabout may deviate from

the traffic lane in which the operator is driving if necessary to navigate a roundabout.

Under this bill, the operator of an automobile, motorcycle, moped, motor bicycle, or

bicycle is required to yield the right-of-way to any motor vehicle that is not an

automobile, motorcycle, moped, motor bicycle, or bicycle approaching or

maneuvering through a roundabout.
