VicRoads: Sharing the Road

Sharing the Road has been developed by VicRoads and other members of the Victorian Bicycle Advisory Council, including Victoria Police, RACV, Bicycle Victoria, Cycling Promotion Fund and the Retail Cycle Traders Association. It is a community-based campaign being delivered in conjunction with Local Government, Roadsafe Community Road Safety Councils, and other organisations concerned with safe use of our roads.

Bicycles are vehicles, and cyclists are permitted to use the road, just like motorists. People who are riding bicycles on the road are required to obey the Road Rules, as are people who are driving. Drivers should to look out for cyclists, who in turn should to take care for their own safety.
