 Introduced by M. of A. STECK -- read once and referred to the Committee

 AN ACT to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to the opera-
 tion of vehicles when approaching bicyclists on the roadway

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Subdivision (a) of section 1146 of the vehicle and traffic
 2 law, as amended by chapter 333 of the laws of 2010, is amended to read
 3 as follows:
 4 (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of any other law to the contrary,
 5 every driver of a vehicle shall exercise due care to avoid colliding
 6 with any bicyclist, pedestrian, or domestic animal upon any roadway and
 7 shall give warning by sounding the horn when necessary. The due care
 8 required to avoid colliding with any bicyclist shall include, but not be
 9 limited to, the driver of a vehicle moving from the lane with the bicy-
 10 clist, if safe to do so; provided, however, if the driver of the vehicle
 11 is unable to change lanes safely or would cross a yellow line to change
 12 lanes, the driver of the vehicle shall reduce their speed. For the
 13 purposes of this section, the term "domestic animal" shall mean domesti-
 14 cated sheep, cattle, and goats which are under the supervision and
 15 control of a pedestrian.
 16 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
