Laws that govern cycling in the City of St. John's come from the City's Bicycle Helmet by-law, the Newfoundland and Labrador Highway Traffic Act and other provincial regulations.
People driving and cycling generally have the same rights and duties when using a roadway or highway under the act. This means that all laws relating to traffic officers, signs, signals and yielding, etc. generally apply to both transportation users.
You must follow all of the following laws as a person cycling in our city. Not obeying each law may result in a fine, arrest or legal action.
