Roswell Police Wants You to Watch For Cyclists

The department takes to YouTube to explain bicycle-motorist safety on the roads.

The Roswell Police Department has joined forces with Bike Roswell to explain to motorists the importance of sharing the road with bicyclists.

The department on Monday released a video, fearing Officer Zach Frommer, explaining Georgia's Three-Foot Rule.

The law establishes a minimum of three feet as the safe passing distance when a motor vehicle overtakes a bicycle traveling in the same direction.
