Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety for Law Enforcement

This course was developed by the League of Michigan Bicyclists with input from the Michigan Office of Highway Safety and Planning to help officers better understand the laws which pertain to Vulnerable Roadway Users and motor vehicles shared use of the roadway.

Topics include:

  • Laws related to bicycle and pedestrian use of the roadways.
  • Laws related to motor vehicles while interacting with bicyclists and pedestrians.
  • Common crashes involving cyclists and motor vehicles and why they occur.
  • New approaches to traffic safety through data and equity, empathy, and ethics in transportation.

After completing this self-paced online course, you’ll be ready to educate the public and enforce bicycle and pedestrian law while on duty, and help your friends and family drive, ride, walk and wheel safely while off duty.

Whether on patrol by foot, car, motorcycle, or bicycle, your officers will benefit from this free course which is accredited by the Michigan Commission on Law Enforcement Standards (MCOLES). Upon completion of the course and corresponding quiz you will receive credit through MCOLES.
