Iowa Bicycle Day at the Capitol (Tues., 1/30) presented an opportunity to discuss bicycle safety issues and solutions with state lawmakers. Cara Hamann and Ryan Dusil spoke with several lawmakers about gaps in protections for people using crosswalks. A related proposed bill (HF2568) passed subcommittee and committee and will be discussed by the House of Representatives soon. Other high-profile bills related to transportation safety includes HSB707, related to cell phone usage while driving and automated traffic enforcement.
