California's three-foot passing bill, SB 1464, faces a vote by the full Senate next week.  The League and California Bicycle Coalition need your help today to tell Senators why this bill will save lives and help make our roads safer for everyone. The bill will require drivers to give bicyclists at least three feet of clearance when overtaking them from behind in the same lane. By giving bicyclists a little more space on the road, SB 1464 can help prevent passing-from-behind collisions, the deadliest type of vehicle collision for bicyclists.   There are several ways you can make your voice heard: Send a personalized email. Download and mail a letter (click here for Senate mailing information).  Visit CBC's website for more information.  Next week's debate takes place among Senators only - they won't hear any outside testimony from organizations like ours. But Senators listen to their constituents. That's why it's so important for you to contact your Senator today!     Thank you for your support of bicycling in California.    1612 K Street NW Ste. 510 Washington, D.C. 20006   bikeleague.org bikel...@bikleague.org   P: 202.822.1333 F: 202.822.1334   JOIN OUR MAILING LIST JOIN THE LEAGUE
