Can motorcycles ride on non-motorized lanes?
2 Answers
Motorcycles are not allowed to ride on non-motorized lanes. Motorcycles should use motor vehicle lanes, and if there is a designated motorcycle lane, they must use it. If there is no designated motorcycle lane, they should generally ride on the rightmost lane but must not cross into the non-motorized lane within the white line. If an accident occurs due to entering the wrong lane, the traffic police will hold the rider fully responsible. Additional information: Without road signs: In the absence of road signs, motorcycles should ride on the rightmost lane, as they are required to do so when there is no dedicated bus lane. Reason: Some roads have specially designated bus lanes, in which case motorcycles must use the second rightmost lane. However, the speed on this lane is relatively slow, making it safer.
Hello everyone, I'm an experienced motorcycle rider. According to traffic regulations, motorcycles are classified as motor vehicles and are not allowed to use bicycle lanes. Bicycle lanes are specifically designed for pedestrians and bicycles, with limited space and slower speeds. Motorcycles entering these lanes can easily cause accidents, such as collisions with pedestrians or traffic congestion. I've seen many instances on the road where things get chaotic at turns or narrow sections. Safety comes first, so it's best for us riders to stick to the motor vehicle lanes, even if the traffic is heavy. If caught violating the rules, penalties can range from fines and demerit points to serious consequences. Also, pay attention to traffic signals, as some cities have surveillance cameras monitoring 24/7, and getting recorded can lead to trouble. I recommend new riders to first learn the traffic rules and not take shortcuts for temporary convenience. Remember, following the rules protects both yourself and others.
