Am I allowed to ride my bicycle on the sidewalk? | Stuart Bike Accident Lawyers
In Florida cyclists or casual bike riders can ride their bike on the sidewalk or choose to use a bike path. The way the law works in Florida is that if a cyclist is using the roadway then they have the same rights and responsibilities as a motor vehicle. If they’re on the sidewalk they actually have the same rights and responsibilities as a pedestrian.
