California’s new “Give Me 3” law meant to keep bicyclists safer

The governor of California has signed a bill into law that now requires drivers to maintain at least a three-foot passing distance between a vehicle and a bicyclist.

Residents suffer a wide range of problems, and can even be killed, because of drugs that are administered improperly.
